Alt Text Map of Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve in Alaska. The preserve is shown in sage green with a darker green boundary. Three paler, yellow areas representing private property are to the right, and the surrounding terrain is beige. Extended Description The border between the United States and Alaska is a straight vertical line about a quarter of the way in from the right edge of the map. The bulk of Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve is roughly oval with a mostly straight border across the top and a thick arm reaching to the right off the top right corner of the preserve. The Yukon River snakes along the top of the preserve and across the arm. The Charley River wiggles in a tight zigzag down from the Yukon to the bottom of the park. Near or along the Yukon beginning in the west are Takoma Bluff and Smith public use cabin at 65.42705° North and 143.55643° West. An area with Sloven’s Roadhouse, Dredge, two public use cabins, an airplane landing strip, and private property all along a Historic Trail are surrounded by a box with text reading “See detail map.” Continuing east are Biederman Bluff; Kandik River public use cabin at 65.37665° North and 142.51548° West; Historic steam tractor; Glenn Creek public use cabin at 65.30169° North and 142.09280° West; Nation Bluff public use cabin at 65.20360° North and 141.74142° West; Montauk Bluff; and Nimrod Peak. The Charley River winds south past peaks to a B-24 WWII crash site; Gelvin’s bush strip; Cabin at 64.81788 degrees North and 143.43843 degrees West; and, farther south, the Three Fingers bush strip. Northwest of the Preserve In the northwest quadrant of the map, the town of Circle sits at the edge of the Yukon River along with a landing strip. Steese Highway/State Route 6 runs southwest from there, passing Central at a branch in the road that leads to Circle Hot Springs where there is also a landing strip. The highway continues to the western edge of the map where text reads, "To Fairbanks, 122 miles (196 kilometers).” Tucked in the northwest, the East Crazy Mountains nestle in the crook of Steese Highway, while Steese National Conservation Area is outlined in gray to the south. Southeast of the Preserve Along the Yukon River outside the southeast corner of the preserve, a visitor center, campground, and airstrip are situated between the hamlet of Eagle and area of Eagle Village. Taylor Highway/State Route 5 runs west through this area, then turns south. It continues to Jack Wade Junction and then veers southwest. Sites along this final stretch are shown as Walker Fork with campground, the village of Chicken, and a landing strip. Text at the southern end of the highway reads, "To Tok, 77 miles (124 kilometers).” Stretching east from Jack Wade Junction, Top of the World Highway/State Route 9 passes through Boundary on its way to the Yukon Territory in Canada. Text at the borderline reads, “Border crossing is open in the summer 8 am to 8 pm (AK time). Call ahead if traveling early or late in the season.” Following the highway to the eastern edge of the map, additional text reads, "From Chicken, AK to Dawson, YT 108 miles (174 kilometers).” Chart A chart embedded above the park is titled “Yukon River Distances from Eagle, AK.” It lists the following: Eagle River, 0 miles (0 kilometers), Nation Bluff public use cabin, 46 miles (74.0 kilometers), Glenn Creek public use cabin, 62 miles (99.8 kilometers), Kandik River public use cabin, 76 miles (122.3 kilometers), Slaven’s Roadhouse, 101 miles (162.5 kilometers), Smith’s public use cabin, 116 miles (186.7 kilometers), and Circle, Alaska, 156 miles (251.0 kilometers).
