2020 Map of Cold Bay A-4 SW

About this map

Bering Sea waters dominate the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the shifting shoreline meets the northern edge of the Aleutian Islands chain. This maritime environment is defined by its complex hydrography, featuring enclosed water bodies like Lake Gilbert and the tidal reaches of Middle Lagoon and Little Lagoon. The landforms transition into the Fox Islands group at the southern boundary, where the Isanotski Islands sit within the wider expanse of Bechevin Bay. The map reveals an area devoid of roads or modern infrastructure, instead highlighting a raw, coastal wilderness as it appeared during the 2016 imagery collection and 2020 topographic update. The absence of settlements emphasizes the remote nature of these islands at the tip of the Alaska Peninsula.
