1953 Map of Nulato C-5

About this map

Nulato serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated along the northern banks of the Yukon River. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the river corridor, where the main channel is split by large landmasses like Nulato Island and Halfway Island, creating a labyrinth of secondary waterways including Mukluk Slough and Kaiyuh Slough. This intricate network of sloughs and rivers, such as the Soonkakat River, historically supported the local river-based economy and transit.
