2020 Map of Marshall D-4 NE

About this map

The Yukon River dominates this landscape in the Kusilvak Census Area, carved by a network of shifting waterways and low-lying landforms. The main channel flows alongside Goose Island, while smaller aquatic features like Driftwood Slough and the Big River define the local hydrography. This 2020 survey provides a look at the modern state of the delta's drainage patterns, illustrating how the river's movement continues to shape the sub-arctic terrain. The map is primarily an inventory of these natural water features, showing the intricate relationship between the primary river trunk and its surrounding sloughs and distributaries in a region where the water itself is the primary landmark.
