2020 Map of Chignik A-6 NW

About this map

Alaska Peninsula shoreline and hydrology dominate this remote coastal landscape on the southwestern reach of the state. The topography is defined by the expansive Sandy Lake, which sits at the center of a complex network of drainage and tidal influences. To the north, the Muddy River meanders toward the coast, while the East Bight indentation marks the shoreline transition. In the south, the Sandy River flows through a broad valley floor, as shown in this 2020 USGS record. The map provides a clear look at the intricate survey grid of the Public Land Survey System, including sections within t46s r68w and t47s r69w, documenting the uninhabited terrain before more modern human alterations reached this part of the Aleutians East Borough.
