2021 Map of Kodiak C-3 SE

About this map

Saltery Cove provides the southern focal point for this 2021 study of a coastal Alaskan watershed. The terrain is dominated by the north-south flow of Saltery Cr, which meanders through a broad valley floor before emptying into the cove. This drainage system serves as a central artery for the surrounding topography, which rises sharply into the high ridges of Kodiak Island. In the northeastern corner of the map, the headwaters of the American River begin their descent through the highlands. The mapping reflects the modern Public Land Survey System divisions, including t30s r21w and t31s r22w, illustrating how these remote wilderness areas are partitioned for administrative and conservation oversight. The lack of named settlements or roads highlights the primary role of natural watercourses and maritime access in this landscape.
