2019 Map of Ophir B-2 SW

About this map

Mastodon Cr and Mammoth Cr define the northern drainages of this Interior Alaska landscape within the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of small waterways, including Hurst Cr and Frisco Cr, which carve through the high elevations. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the extreme isolation typical of the Ophir region, a territory primarily shaped by its hydrology and the systematic township and range lines of the Public Land Survey System. Researchers can trace the headwaters of numerous creeks like Boob Cr and Basin Cr, whose names hint at the area's prospecting history and the nomenclature of early Alaskan mining districts.
