2018 Map of Fort Yukon C-1 NE

About this map

The Draanjik River meanders heavily through this Interior Alaska landscape, creating a complex network of oxbows, sloughs, and shallow lakes. The terrain is defined by the shifting nature of these waterways, exemplified by features like Graveyard Slough and the nearby Graveyard Lakes in the north. This 2018 survey reveals a topography where water dominates the land, with subtle features like the John Ross Riffle indicating specific points of riverbed change along the Draanjik's course. Farther south, the environment transitions into larger standing water bodies such as Tsiyeehvun Lake and Applevun Lake. The lack of road infrastructure and the prevalence of landmarks like John Kwilliit Slough highlight a region where transport and seasonal movement are historically dictated by the flow of the river system within the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area.
