2017 Map of Goodnews Bay A-7 NE

About this map

Goodnews River defines the drainage patterns of this Alaskan landscape, where braided waterways move through the Bethel Census Area. The map captures the convergence of major branches, including the Middle Fork Goodnews River and the S Fork Goodnews River, which weave through terrain marked by extensive wetland systems and gradual elevation changes. Rising above the low-lying river valleys, Lookout Mtn provides a clear landmark in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Smaller tributaries like Tivyagak Cr feed into the larger river network, illustrating the complex hydrology of this subarctic environment. The lack of road infrastructure or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of the region, where land navigation relies almost entirely on following the intricate bends of these primary watercourses and the relief of named summits.
