About this map

The Melozitna River meanders through this interior Alaska landscape, defining a complex drainage system characterized by numerous small ponds and wetland basins. In this remote stretch of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, the river's path is joined by tributary streams including Slokhenjikh Cr and Nethkahati Cr. The terrain is marked by the distinct upland of Tohatokhet in the northwest, which provides a sharp contrast to the low-lying, water-saturated plains to the south.

Norseman Lake sits as a prominent landmark within this wilderness, surrounded by a network of unnamed seasonal pools and marshlands. The map captures a landscape largely untouched by permanent infrastructure, reflecting the natural hydrological patterns of the Alaskan bush. Researchers can trace the specific township and range lines, such as t11n r26w, as they overlay this intricate mosaic of water and land.
