The Yukon Delta
Image taken 5/26/2002 by ASTER

An intricate maze of small lakes and waterways define the Yukon Delta at the confluence of Alaska's Ukon and Kuskokwim Rivers with the frigid Bering Sea. Wildlife abounds on the delta and offshore where sheets of sea ice form during the coldest months of the year.
