2019 Map of Lime Hills B-6 SW

About this map

The Stony River winds through the southern reaches of this interior landscape, defining the topography within the Bethel Census Area. This 2019 survey, compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey using data from SPOT imagery and the National Hydrography Dataset, illustrates the complex braided channels and meanders characteristic of this drainage basin. The map area is organized by the Public Land Survey System, spanning township lines from t15n r33w down to t13n r32w. The lack of named roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the undisturbed character of the terrain, where the river serves as the primary geographical anchor. Modern cartographic methods, including the National Elevation Dataset, provide precise contouring that reveals the gradual transition from the river valley to the surrounding higher elevations in the Lime Hills region.
