2020 Map of Marshall B-8 SW

About this map

Manokinak River winds extensively through this coastal wetland region within the Kusilvak Census Area. The map captures the complex, braided hydrology of the Alaskan tundra, where land and water merge into a dense pattern of ponds, sloughs, and marshland. Surveyed by the U.S. Geological Survey using 2016 satellite imagery, the data reflects the shifting nature of these western Alaska waterways. This uninhabited expanse is primarily defined by its public land designations, including the townships of t14n r88w and t14n r87w, which delineate the vast wilderness where few permanent structures or roads exist. The map serves as a vital record of the river's course and the surrounding National Wetlands Inventory data in an era of changing Arctic landscapes.
