What major city does the Yukon river flow by?
After Mountain Village, the main Yukon channel frays into many channels, sprawling across the delta. There are a number of communitites after the “head of passes,” as the channel division is called locally: Nunum Iqua, Alakanuk, Emmonak, and Kotlik. Of those delta communities, Emmonak is the largest with roughly 760 people in the 2000 census. Emmonak’s gravel airstrip is the regional hub for flights.
