2020 Map of Baird Inlet D-8 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2020

About this map

The settlement of Newtok sits at the edge of a complex water-bound landscape along the western coast of Alaska. This 2020 survey documents the village during a period of significant environmental transition, showing the close relationship between the community and the surrounding wetlands and waterways. Transport infrastructure is represented by the Newtok Airport, a critical link for this coastal area. To the north, the Kealavik River meanders through a labyrinth of small ponds and thaw lakes characteristic of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. The map also delineates the administrative boundary between the Kusilvak Census Area and the Bethel Census Area, which cuts across the marshy terrain. The sparse human footprint here emphasizes the primacy of the natural hydrologic system and the importance of the few established hubs for local transit and residence.
