About this map

Coldfoot serves as a critical northern outpost along the Dalton Highway, situated where the Middle Fork Koyukuk River winds through the interior. The landscape is defined by the vital infrastructure of the Alaska Pipeline, which runs parallel to the highway, supporting the state's energy corridor. The terrain rises sharply from the river valley toward prominent heights such as Cathedral Mtn, while several passes like Rosie Creek Pass and Sitkum Pass provide natural transitions between drainage basins. Aviation access is centered at the Coldfoot Airport, reflecting the area's role as a logistical hub for the surrounding wilderness. The map details numerous waterways, including Slate Creek and Hungarian Cr, which carve through the high-elevation topography and feed into the larger Koyukuk system.
