2019 Map of Lime Hills D-1 NE

About this map

South Fork Kuskokwim River defines the western edge of this remote Alaskan terrain, where glacial waters and high-elevation valleys dominate the landscape. The Ptarmigan Valley acts as a central corridor for the Ptarmigan Creek drainage system, which feeds into the complex hydrology of the region alongside the Styx River. This 2019 survey documents a wilderness area devoid of modern infrastructure, preserving the natural state of features like Styx Lake and the various tributaries of Timber Creek. The elevation contours reveal the steep slopes of the Lime Hills, illustrating how the drainage patterns of these smaller creeks eventually converge toward the larger Kuskokwim watershed.
