2016 Map of Kateel River C-1 SW

About this map

The Koyukuk River dominates this interior landscape, winding in broad, rhythmic meanders across the floodplain. The river's path is characterized by numerous oxbows and abandoned channels, illustrating a dynamic fluvial system in a region largely defined by its watercourses. Flanking the main channel are seasonal water bodies including Fish Lake and Long Lake, which serve as vital landmarks in an area otherwise marked by undulating contours and surveyed township boundaries such as t3n r12e and t2n r12e. This 2016 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the wilderness character of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, where the lack of roads and settlements emphasizes the reliance on the river as the primary corridor for movement and geography.
