2020 Map of Goodnews Bay A-5 NW

About this map

The Bethel Census Area and Dillingham Census Area border runs through this remote stretch of the Alaska wilderness, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of glacial melt and tundra drainage. The Matogak River dominates the central and eastern portions of the map, carving a complex network of channels through the lowlands before the terrain rises into steep, unnamed peaks. In the western reaches, the S Fork Goodnews River enters the frame, marking a critical corridor for seasonal subsistence and travel. The absence of roads or established settlements underscores the wild character of this region, which remains primarily organized by the township and range lines of the Public Land Survey System, including t11s r69w and t12s r68w. This 2020 topographic record serves as a vital document for those studying the hydrologic patterns and political boundaries of Southwest Alaska.
