The South Fork Koyukuk River winds through the northwestern corner of this interior Alaska wilderness, while the Jim River cuts across the southern and eastern landscape. This 2017 topographic survey highlights the complex drainage patterns and wetland systems typical of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The map captures a moment of modern data compilation, utilizing SPOT satellite imagery and National Hydrography Dataset records to detail the intricate paths of these Arctic waterways. Without permanent settlements or roads shown, the map serves as a primary record of the natural topography and hydrologic features between the North Slope and the Yukon River drainage, where the landscape is defined by the shifting courses of these two significant rivers.
