About this map

The Yukon Flats dominate this northern landscape, revealing a complex network of wetlands and meandering waterways in the Alaskan interior. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by its hydrography, where Beaver Creek and the smaller Big Cr wind through an expanse dotted with numerous unnamed ponds and major water bodies like Ninemile Lake. The transition from the low-lying wetland basins to the more defined topography in the southern portion of the quadrangle highlights the characteristic drainage patterns of this subarctic environment.

Researchers and surveyors can trace the precise boundaries of several townships, including t16n r5e and t17n r6e, across a terrain where significant landmarks such as Abraham Lake and Halfway Lake serve as primary navigational anchors. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of the region, where the shifting courses of creeks and the stability of large lakes are the primary geographic features of interest.
