About this map

The Yukon River dominates this mid-century landscape, branching into the Main Channel, Western Channel, and East Channel around a complex system of river islands. Landforms like Florence Island, Doyle Island, and Edith Island are defined by shifting waterways and sloughs, including Kathaleen Island Slough and Novakaket Slough. To the south, the Nowitna River and Junekaket Creek snake through a water-heavy basin, featuring extreme meanders such as The Loop.
