2024 Map of Medfra A-3 NE

About this map

North Fork Kuskokwim River dominates this interior landscape, winding in tight, complex oxbows and meanders through the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The river's path is characterized by numerous cutoffs and active channel migration across a broad, relatively flat basin. In the southeastern corner of the quadrangle, the elevation rises sharply into the East Fork Hills, providing a topographic contrast to the saturated lowlands. This 2024 edition of the Medfra A-3 NE quadrangle illustrates a wild, unpopulated reach of the Alaska interior, where the hydrology of the Kuskokwim drainage dictates the land's character. Researchers of Alaskan geography will find the intricate shoreline of the river particularly notable, as it shows the natural evolution of an unimpeded northern waterway.
