About this map

Koyukuk River dominates the western edge of this interior Alaska landscape, carving a wide, braided path through the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The river's serpentine course is defined by intricate meanders and numerous oxbow lakes, illustrating the shifting hydrology of this subarctic environment. To the southeast, the South Fork Koyukuk River flows across the terrain, while Hanzegah Cr feeds into the primary river system from the north. This 2016 survey documents the complex wetland and water patterns within the townships of t22n r19w and t21n r19w, highlighting a wilderness shaped by seasonal freeze and thaw cycles rather than permanent human infrastructure.
