About this map

The Yukon River defines the northern reaches of this landscape, where the water flows westward past the high interior terrain. This specific stretch is characterized by the convergence of critical modern infrastructure, as the Alaska Pipeline and the Dalton Highway both traverse the hills south of the river. These engineering corridors parallel one another through the townships of t11n r9w and t12n r9w, navigating the drainage basins of several small tributaries. Notable drainages include Isom Cr and Rock Cr, which cut through the steep topography before their waters eventually join the Yukon. The map provides a clear look at the elevation patterns and the sparse, utilitarian network of roads and pipelines that support the resource-rich interior of the Yukon-Koyukuk region during the early 21st century.
