2017 Map of Bethel B-5 SW

About this map

The Kwethluk River meanders across this landscape in the Bethel Census Area, showcasing the complex hydrography of the Alaskan interior. This 2017 survey details a wilderness terrain dominated by expansive wetlands and shifting watercourses, where the river's path is defined by intricate loops and oxbows. Rising above the low-lying tundra is Eluwaktak Mtn, a prominent topographic landmark that provides a singular point of elevation in an otherwise fluid environment. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of several townships, including t3n r66w, t3n r67w, t2n r66w, and t2n r67w, illustrating how the Public Land Survey System imposes a grid upon this remote corner of the world. For those studying the natural history of the region, these features represent the primary navigational and geographical anchors of the territory.
