2018 Map of Christian D-5 SW

About this map

Wind River carves a meandering path through the northern reaches of this landscape, its serpentine channels creating a complex network of oxbows and wetlands across the flats. This 2018 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a wilderness environment defined almost entirely by its drainage patterns, including the southern approach of Lush Cr. The map covers the intersection of townships T35N R6E, T35N R7E, T34N R6E, and T34N R7E, where the high-elevation terrain to the south drops toward the river valley. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote character of this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, offering a clear record of the natural hydrology and topography as it exists in the early twenty-first century.
