2019 Map of Dillingham D-5 NE

About this map

The Nuyakuk River meanders through this remote Alaskan landscape, defining the southern portion of the quadrangle with its wide, winding channel and numerous internal islands. Flowing toward the southwest, this major waterway is joined by the Pikehowik River, which cuts diagonally across the central terrain. The land is characterized by complex hydrology, showing an intricate network of small lakes and ponds typical of the Bristol Bay region's glacial legacy. Surveyed in 2019, the map captures a pristine wilderness devoid of roads or permanent settlements, structured primarily by the Public Land Survey System boundaries of t3s r48w and t3s r49w. For those studying the natural history of the Dillingham Census Area, this sheet provides a high-resolution look at the shifting riverbeds and wetland patterns that dominate the local ecosystem.
