2019 Map of Ruby C-3 NW

About this map

The Nowitna River dominates this interior Alaska landscape, weaving a complex network of oxbow lakes and abandoned channels across a broad alluvial plain. This 2019 survey captures the river's meandering character as it winds through the wilderness of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The lack of named settlements or infrastructure on the map underscores the isolation of this river corridor, where the land is primarily defined by the seasonal movement of water and the shifting banks of the river itself.
