1979 Map of Bethel A-2

About this map

Togiak National Wildlife Refuge and the Togiak Wilderness dominate this Alaskan landscape, reflecting a period of significant federal land conservation following the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The map captures a transition from the lower tundra-rich basins to the higher elevations of Crooked Mountain and the surrounding peaks. Water defines the movement through the terrain, with the Kwethluk River winding through the southern reaches and a network of drainages like Akoswift Creek and Little Swift Creek feeding into the larger hydrological system.
