2017 Map of Goodnews Bay A-7 SE

About this map

Iktliyagak Mtn and Tgolik Mtn anchor the high ground in this southwestern Alaska landscape, where the terrain transitions from steep peaks to low-lying wetlands. The drainage systems are the primary geographical markers here, with the Puyulik Cr winding through the western hills and the Kinegnak River flowing across the southern reaches. This 2017 survey documents a largely unpeopled wilderness within the Bethel Census Area, focusing on the intricate contour lines of Dome Mtn and the numerous unnamed small ponds that dot the marshy plains. The lack of roads or infrastructure highlights the isolation of this region, where the natural watercourses like Kinegnak Cr define the movement of the land. It is a snapshot of an untouched environment, valuable for studying the hydrology and elevation of the Goodnews Bay area.
