1956 Map of Fort Yukon A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Yukon River dominates this interior Alaska landscape, weaving through a complex network of braided channels and shifting bars. During the mid-1950s, the river's dynamic nature is evidenced by features like Saloon Island and the descriptive Halfway Whirlpool. The surrounding lowlands are defined by the intricate meandering of Birch Creek and Preacher Creek, which create a dense pattern of oxbows and marshy terrain typical of the Yukon Flats.
