The Askinuk Mountains dominate this coastal Alaskan landscape, rising above a complex network of tidewater rivers and creek systems. Located along the eastern edge of the Bering Sea, the terrain shifts from the high elevations of the mountains down to the marshy lowlands drained by the Ekashlukt River and Lithkealik River. This 2020 survey illustrates the remote character of the Kusilvak Census Area, where the land meets the sea at prominent landmarks like Point Smith and the protected waters of Kongishluk Bay. The intricate drainage patterns of Towak Cr and Kousiakrak Cr suggest a shifting, wetland-heavy environment typical of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region. Researchers can observe how the topography transitions from steep mountain slopes to the vast alluvial plains that define this section of the coast.
