2019 Map of Iliamna A-7 NW

About this map

Katmai National Preserve encompasses the southern portion of this landscape, where the vast waters of Kukaklek Lake meet the headwaters of the Alagnak River. This 2019 survey documents a pristine subarctic environment defined by intricate drainage patterns and glacial geography. The transition from the massive lake into the river system suggests a critical corridor for regional hydrology and migratory patterns, unencumbered by human infrastructure or permanent settlements. To the north, the terrain is marked by smaller water bodies and the winding course of Nanuktuk Cr, illustrating the complex water-shedding character of the Alaska Peninsula. The map provides a precise record of these wild waterways within the Lake and Peninsula Borough before any modern development or landscape alteration.
