2017 Map of Chandalar C-5 SE

About this map

Twin Lakes sit at the heart of this high-latitude Alaskan landscape, surrounded by a complex network of drainage systems in the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The topographical survey highlights the varied watershed patterns formed by Robert Creek and its many tributaries, including the winding paths of Phoebe Cr and Mellow Cr. The map captures a moment in the modern era when the land remains primarily defined by its hydrology and natural elevation rather than industrial development. Smaller flows like Shady Cr and Big Jim Cr carve through the terrain, illustrating the intricate water movements that shape the valleys. This 2017 edition provides a clear view of the wilderness before any significant human infrastructure altered the remote character of these northern watercourses.
