Chefornak sits along the southern reaches of the Kinia River in this coastal Alaskan landscape, where the land and water are inextricably linked. The map illustrates a dense network of wetlands, sloughs, and small lakes characteristic of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region. In the northern portion, the Keguk River winds through the tundra, part of a complex hydrologic system that dictates the movement and settlement patterns of the area. This 2020 survey documents the modern layout of the village of Chefornak, providing a precise record of its location relative to the tidal influences and shifting river channels that define life in this subarctic environment.
