2019 Map of Bethel D-1 NE

About this map

Aniak River meanders through this interior Alaska landscape, defining the central drainage pattern as it flows across several townships including t10n r55w. The river's serpentine path is flanked by the rising slopes of the surrounding hills, where Atsaksouluk Creek feeds into the valley system from the east. This 2019 survey captures the wilderness character of the Bethel Census Area, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Kuskokwim River watershed before any modern infrastructure development reached this specific reach of the back-country. The topography is dominated by steep-sided ridges and narrow stream valleys, characteristic of the transition from the river lowlands to the more elevated interior highlands.
