2018 Map of Charley River D-6 SW

About this map

The Yukon River dominates the western corridor of this interior Alaskan landscape, winding through a broad alluvial valley that transitions into significant upland relief. The terrain is defined by the sharp contrast between the low-lying wetlands surrounding the river and the complex ridge systems of the northeast, where Jefferson Cr carves through the heights of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. This 2018 survey illustrates a remote wilderness where natural hydrography and elevation remain the primary features, largely untouched by permanent road infrastructure or settlements. The drainage patterns of the Jefferson Cr system provide a clear view of the northern interior's watershed development before it joins the primary glacial-fed artery of the Yukon.
