2017 Map of Goodnews Bay D-7 SE

About this map

The Kanektok River flows westward through this remote landscape in the Bethel Census Area, creating a complex network of braids and oxbows across the tundra. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the hydrologic patterns of the region, where the river serves as a primary geographic corridor. To the south, the terrain rises slightly into upland areas drained by Magaktlek Cr, while Klaktak Cr appears in the northeast corner. The lack of roads or established settlements on this map underscores the wild nature of the Alaskan wilderness, where natural watercourses and Public Land Survey System boundaries, such as t4s r71w and t4s r70w, provide the only navigational markers.
