2016 Map of Hughes A-1 SW

About this map

Indian River flows through the southern reaches of this interior Alaskan landscape, defining the local drainage patterns alongside Notoniono Cr and Oithgidunka Cr. This 2016 survey highlights a vast, unpopulated stretch of the Yukon-Koyukuk region where the topography transitions from low-lying wetlands and complex stream meanders to significant upland ridges. The mapping of township and range lines, including t8n r26e and t7n r26e, provides a formal grid over an area otherwise characterized by natural watercourses and the seasonal movement of water across the tundra. The intricate contour work reveals the elevation changes that guide these tributary systems toward larger river basins in the Alaskan bush.
