1955 Map of Fort Yukon D-4

About this map

Veh-Tenjerlow Lakes dominate the northern landscape of this interior Alaskan wilderness, part of a complex wetland system within the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of meandering waterways and seasonal drainage, where Marten Creek and Kocacho Creek thread through the lowlands between the Chandalar River and the Christian River. Evidence of human presence is sparse but specific, marked by a Sled Trail and isolated Cabins that indicate seasonal travel and subsistence patterns in the mid-20th century. The intricate placement of Twentymile Lake and the Tsukon terrain area highlights the challenging, water-logged geography that has historically dictated movement and settlement in this corner of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
