2017 Map of Livengood C-4 NE

About this map

Hess Creek and its southern tributaries wind through this interior Alaska landscape, defining the drainage patterns within the Yukon-Koyukuk region. This 2017 study illustrates a wild expanse where water is the primary architect of the terrain, as seen in the meandering path of Halfmoon Creek and the lower reaches of McHugh Creek. The map is structured around the Public Land Survey System boundaries for Townships 9 through 11 North, providing a clear coordinate-based view of the unpopulated backcountry. For those studying the hydrology of the Yukon River basin, the detailed elevation contours and wetland markings reveal the complex network of creeks that sustain this subarctic environment, offering a technical look at a landscape primarily defined by its riparian corridors and lack of established roads or infrastructure.
