2020 Map of Baird Inlet A-5 NW

About this map

Dull Lake dominates the upper half of this coastal Alaskan landscape, situated within the vast wetland complex of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. The Kinak River meanders through the southern sections of the map, illustrating the intricate, slow-moving drainage patterns characteristic of the Bethel Census Area. This topographic study reveals a terrain where water and land are nearly indistinguishable, defined by an endless network of small ponds and saturated marshes rather than established roads or permanent settlements. The layout of the township and range boundaries, such as t1n r84w and t2n r83w, highlights the systematic surveying of this remote wilderness in the early twenty-first century. For those studying the hydrology of the Baird Inlet region, the map provides a clear record of the seasonal water bodies and river channels that dictate movement through this environment.
