About this map

Pah River Flats dominate this interior landscape along the border of the Northwest Arctic Borough and the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. This subarctic wetland system is defined by the winding course of the Pah River, which meanders across the territory alongside its tributary, Asiksat Cr. The map captures a remote section of the Alaskan wilderness where drainage patterns and water bodies are the primary geographical markers, showing the intricate network of ponds and saturated terrain that characterize the flats. Without established settlements or roads, the region’s topography is purely defined by these natural watercourses and the legal township grid lines of the Public Land Survey System.
