Serpentine Islands in Detail.

About

Located in the Yukon River, 33 miles northeast of Nulato, Koyukuk Lowlands.

History

Riverboat pilots' name shown on a 1940 "Navigation Chart of the Tanana-Yukon Rivers" published by US Deptartment of Interior (AK-T1). U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Field report indicates that the "name should be used in the plural because it seems apparent that the two islands were once one island."
