2017 Map of Baird Inlet A-2 NW

About this map

The Tagayarak River meanders across the northern reaches of this landscape in the Bethel Census Area, defining a complex network of water and wetlands. This area, dominated by the hydrology of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, exhibits a pattern of countless small ponds and lakelets characteristic of the tundra. The survey captures the transition between Townships t2n r78w and t2n r77w to the north, and t1n r78w and t1n r77w to the south. This environment is defined by its fluid boundaries, where the terrestrial and aquatic worlds are inextricably linked, offering a precise 2017 baseline for researchers studying the evolving shoreline and hydrographic shifts of this subarctic region.
