2018 Map of Charley River C-6 SE

About this map

Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve encompasses most of this landscape, where the massive Yukon River cuts through the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The river's broad channel and adjacent wetlands form a distinct ecological corridor against the higher terrain to the east and north. In the upper portion of the map, the Little Black River meanders across a plateau-like region, reflecting a drainage pattern typical of the Alaskan interior where water bodies navigate between subtle elevation changes. This 2018 survey illustrates a region defined by its lack of modern infrastructure, preserving the natural state of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. The topography is shaped by the interplay of these major water systems, which have historically served as the primary transit routes through this wilderness long before established roads or air travel became common.
