About this map

Yukon River waters dominate this landscape of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, carving a complex network of channels and backwaters through the interior. Large landmasses like Kathaleen Island are defined by the split flow of the main river and the lengthy Bering Slough, illustrating the dynamic nature of this fluvial system. The topography is characterized by low-lying wetlands and intricate drainage patterns, with Bering Creek meandering through the eastern sections and the Nowitna River entering from the southwest. Landmark points such as Bering Point provide navigational reference in a territory where the movement of water dictates the geography. This survey documents the specific alignment of bars and secondary channels before natural shifts and seasonal floods alter the course of these northern waterways.
