1955 Map of Fort Yukon C-5

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Yukon Flats dominate this mid-century landscape, revealing a complex network of active and abandoned river channels within the National Wildlife Refuge. The powerful Yukon River carves through the southern portion of the sheet, creating features like Deadman Island and the prominent Willow Pt. This area is defined by its shifting hydrology, where Crazy Slough meanders between the main river and the northern Chandalar River. Local history is anchored to specific river-oriented sites, most notably Johnnie the Frog Cabin near the riverbank. Other small Cabins and survey markers like VABM 393 Chandalar provide rare evidence of human habitation and navigation in this interior Alaskan wilderness. Further east, the Upper Mouth Birch Creek and Bearman Lake highlight the dense concentration of water bodies that characterize this subarctic basin.
