1986 Map of Hughes B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Koyukuk River and its intricate drainage network define this interior Alaskan wilderness as it appeared in the 1970s and 1980s. Compiled from aerial photography, this provisional survey illustrates a landscape dominated by the Hogatza Hills and Hatdolitna Hills, where elevation contours reveal the complex relief of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The Hogatza River meanders through the northwest, while smaller watercourses like Hughes Creek and Taltlinkho Creek carve through the southern uplands. This map represents an era of surveying where land lines remained largely unsurveyed and unmarked, with locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management. The absence of roads or trails highlights the remote character of this terrain, emphasizing the importance of the perennial river systems for orientation and travel in this subarctic environment.
