USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Koyukuk River and Kobuk River systems define this mid-century look at the Alaskan interior, showing a landscape shaped by seasonal travel and subsistence. The village of Hughes serves as the primary hub, surrounded by critical river access points like the Hogatza Landing Area and Elevenmile Landing Area. This 1956 topography documents the historic Potziligi Portage (Kobuk Portage), an ancient overland route connecting the major river basins across the Pah River Flats.
