2017 Map of Bethel B-8 NW

About this map

The Eenayarak River meanders across this low-lying Alaskan landscape in the Bethel Census Area, illustrating the complex hydrological patterns of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. This 2017 survey reveals a terrain dominated by water and wetlands, where the river's path is defined by subtle elevation changes and an expansive network of small ponds. To the northeast, the presence of Eek Lake serves as a primary landmark in a region otherwise characterized by shifting seasonal waters and intricate drainage basins. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System grid, spanning Townships such as t4n r73w and t4n r72w, which aids in locating specific remote coordinates within this expansive wilderness. The intricate braiding of the river and the density of unnamed water bodies emphasize the specialized nature of navigating and documenting such a saturated environment.
