1956 Map of Fort Yukon A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Twentytwo Mile Village stands on the banks of the Yukon River at the heart of this mid-century subarctic survey. The landscape is defined by the braided channels and expansive wetlands surrounding the Twentytwo Mile Slough and the Twentytwo Mile Islands. Human presence is sparse, marked only by an isolated Cabin and the village, reflecting the subsistence-based settlement patterns of the interior. Transportation relies on the seasonal Winter Trail, which cuts across the marshy lowlands, and the natural waterways like Birch Creek. This survey, based on 1952 aerial photography and 1956 field annotation, captures a specific moment in the geography of the Yukon-Koyukuk region before more modern infrastructure began to reach these isolated riverine communities.
