2018 Map of Black River A-3 SW

About this map

Draanjik River meanders through this remote portion of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, defining a landscape of intricate waterways and subtle elevation changes. The presence of Big Duck Lake in the northern reaches, combined with the winding course of the river, suggests a complex wetland environment characteristic of the Alaskan interior. In the southwestern quadrant, the terrain rises significantly toward the peak of Fanny Mtn, providing a distinct topographical contrast to the low-lying river basin. The drainage patterns of Mountain Cr further illustrate the watershed's connectivity, reflecting the untouched hydrology of the area as documented in this 2018 survey. This map serves as a clear record of the area's natural state, focusing on the relationship between its water bodies and prominent landforms.
