2015 Map of Unalakleet B-1 NW

About this map

The Yukon River dominates this interior landscape, carving a wide path through the Unalakleet B-1 NW quadrangle. In this 2015 study, the river's complex braided nature is evident, particularly where it surrounds Blackburn Island. This large landform within the main channel suggests a dynamic river system where shifting currents and silt deposits constantly reshape the navigation and habitat. The hydrology of the region is further defined by several tributaries, including the meandering Papa Willie Creek and Woods Cr, which flow from the surrounding elevations to meet the primary waterway. The map provides a precise look at the Public Land Survey System grid, including townships t23s r4w and t24s r4w, which is essential for understanding land divisions in this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
