2020 Map of Cold Bay A-1 SE

About this map

Belkofski stands on the rugged coastline of the Alaska Peninsula in this 2020 topographic survey, a location deeply tied to the maritime history of the Aleutians East Borough. The terrain rises sharply from the shore into high, unnamed peaks that dominate the northern half of the quadrangle, while the southern expanse is defined by the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. This coastal orientation highlights the isolation of the settlement, accessible primarily by water via Belkofski Bay. The survey documents the transition from the high-relief interior down to Belkofski Point, providing a contemporary record of the landforms and maritime boundaries in this remote reach of southwest Alaska. Researchers can trace the topography surrounding the village site and the shoreline features that have long dictated travel and subsistence in the region.
