2019 Map of Mount Katmai D-2 SW

About this map

Katmai National Park dominates this terrain, showcasing the high-altitude topography of the Alaska Peninsula during the early twenty-first century. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation gradients of the Aleutian Range, where glacial meltwater feeds into the Kamishak River as it flows toward the coast. This 2019 survey documents the intricate drainage patterns of the region, including the headwaters of Strike Cr, which carves through the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map captures a moment of preserved wilderness within the Kenai Peninsula Borough, illustrating the complex interplay of snowfields and seasonal runoff within the park boundaries. Researchers can trace the formal township divisions, such as t15s r32w and t16s r32w, which overlay this largely roadless and uninhabited terrain.
