2020 Map of Chignik C-1 SE

About this map

The Aleutian Range dominates the western half of this maritime landscape, where steep coastal mountains drop sharply into the North Pacific. This survey captures a rugged section of the Alaska Peninsula defined by deep indentations of the sea, most notably the wide expanse of Kujulik Bay and the northern reaches of Chignik Bay. The geography is shaped by dramatic elevation changes, from sea level up through the narrow Black Pass, providing a clear record of the area's complex drainage systems. Several freshwater sources, including Bear Cr and Hook Creek, flow from the interior heights toward the tidal flats. Notable landmarks such as Cape Kumliun serve as critical navigational points along this wilderness coastline, illustrating the interaction between the peninsula's mountainous spine and the surrounding bays.
