About this map

Von Frank Mtn stands as a central topographic anchor within this interior Alaskan landscape, which is part of the broader Kuskokwim Mountains system. The terrain is defined by a series of significant drainage basins where high ridgelines give way to the headwaters of several remote waterways. Flowing through the deep valleys of this quadrangle, Von Frank Cr and Shepherd Cr move through the eastern and central sections, while the Mystery Mountains rise to the west. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of the region, where surveyors have documented the natural hydrography including Cottonwood Cr and Flax Cr. For those studying the geography of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, this map details the complex drainage patterns and elevation profiles that define this subarctic environment.
