2018 Map of Fort Yukon B-2 SE

About this map

The Yukon River winds through the southwestern corner of this map, defining a landscape dominated by complex wetland networks and intricate waterways in the Alaskan interior. This 2018 survey reveals the braided nature of the river as it moves through the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, showing the shifting channels and numerous small islands typical of this low-lying fluvial environment. The remainder of the sheet is largely defined by the Public Land Survey System grids of t18n r14e, t18n r15e, t17n r14e, and t17n r15e, which organize the vast, uninhabited reaches of the northern flats. These surveying lines provide the only structural human overlay on a terrain otherwise governed by the natural rhythms of the subarctic water cycle.
