2019 Map of Dillingham B-5 SE

About this map

Ekwok sits on the high banks overlooking the massive Nushagak River system in this southwestern Alaska landscape. The terrain is defined by the braided channels and low-lying wetlands typical of the Dillingham Census Area, where the Kokwok River converges with the Nushagak. This 2019 survey documents a complex network of smaller tributaries including Koklong Cr, Lookout Cr, and Lower Klutuk Creek that wind through the tundra. The settlement of Ekwok serves as a primary point of human activity in an area otherwise characterized by natural watercourses and the seasonal ebb and flow of the river delta. The map provides a detailed view of the local hydrology and topographical contours that shape the region's subsistence and travel patterns.
