1979 Map of Goodnews Bay D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Ahklun Mountains dominate this high-latitude terrain, where a complex network of glacial lakes and drainages defines the geography. High peaks such as Mount Oratia and Outuchiwenat Mountain rise above the valleys of the Eek River and Trail Creek. This 1970s survey captures a landscape of immense water bodies, including the large expanse of Pegati Lake and Kagati Lake in the west, and Nenevok Lake in the southeast. Smaller features like Tshachaling-Atachtoli Lake and Ata-ai-ach Mountain suggest a region shaped by both indigenous naming traditions and geological isolation. The map illustrates the hydrological connection between systems like Aukamunuk Creek and Atmugiak Creek, which weave through the mountain passes of southwestern Alaska. With no roads or trails recorded in this area at the time of publication, the survey provides a detailed view of a remote wilderness during a period of extensive federal topographic mapping in the Dillingham region.
