2019 Map of Mount Katmai D-3 SW

About this map

Katmai National Park encompasses the majority of this landscape, reflecting a protected wilderness defined by extreme elevation changes and glacial-carved drainage systems. In the southwestern corner, the headwaters of American Cr emerge from the high ridges, carving a narrow valley floor amidst a series of unnamed peaks and ridges that rise several thousand feet above sea level. This survey illustrates the intricate township and range divisions, such as t15s r34w and t16s r34w, which overlay the terrain in a strictly mathematical grid despite the complex topography of the Alaska Peninsula. The lack of man-made infrastructure or named settlements emphasizes the character of the region as a preserved natural corridor, where the land is primarily organized by survey benchmarks and natural watersheds.
