2016 Map of Melozitna D-2 NW

About this map

The Indian Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this remote Yukon-Koyukuk interior region, where steep drainage patterns descend into the broad, meandering basin of the Indian River. This 2016 survey illustrates the complex hydrology of the subarctic wilderness, capturing the intricate courses of northern tributaries like Utopia Cr and Macaroni Cr. The map details the transition from high-elevation ridgelines down to the wetland-rich flats surrounding the main river channel, providing a clear view of the natural terrain before any modern industrial or infrastructural footprints. It serves as a vital record for understanding the topographical character of the Alaskan interior in the early 21st century, defined by its watercourses and prominent mountain peaks.
