About this map

The branching waterways of the Yukon River delta define this coastal landscape, where Kwikpak Pass and Kawanak Pass create a complex network of channels and marshlands. These major distributaries are the primary features of the Kusilvak Census Area shown here, facilitating travel and seasonal subsistence activities in a region where water routes are the only highways. The intersection of these passes near Sea Gull Point illustrates the dynamic nature of the delta, as sediment and seasonal flows continuously reshape the banks. To the east, the Durukchavuk Slough meanders through the wetlands, while Kochluk Pass cuts through the northwest, highlighting the intricate hydrological patterns of this subarctic environment. The lack of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the role of these waterways as the lifeblood of the coastal tundra.
