1956 Map of Charley River

About this map

Yukon River boatmen and interior explorers encountered a sparse but vital network of outposts along this stretch of the Alaska-Yukon border during the mid-20th century. The waterway serves as the primary artery through the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve, connecting isolated sites like the Woodchopper Roadhouse and Slaven Cabin. These riverside landmarks, along with McGregor Cabin and Millers Camp, reflect the subsistence and mining history of the region. The landscape is defined by the confluence of major drainages including the Charley River and Kandik River, set against prominent heights such as Mount Ernest Patty and Kathul Mtn. To the north, the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge marks a transition into the broad Yukon Flats, where numerous creeks like Paddle Creek and Black River meander toward the international boundary.
