1965 Map of Hughes
USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The Koyukuk River and its major tributaries, including the Alatna River and Hogatza River, dominate this mid-century look at the Alaskan interior. The settlement of Hughes sits along the Koyukuk, serving as a vital node in a landscape defined by water and high terrain. This map records the Arctic Circle passing through the Lockwood Hills and Hogatza Hills, a region where transport was historically dictated by rivers and portages. One such significant route is the Potzitigi Portage (Kobuk Portage), which connects the Koyukuk drainage with the Kobuk River system to the north.
