About this map

Kvichak Bay dominates the southern portion of this landscape, where the waters of the estuary meet the low-lying coastal terrain of southwest Alaska. The boundary between the Dillingham Census Area and Bristol Bay Borough cuts diagonally across the shoreline, marking a significant administrative division in this sparsely populated region. This 2019 survey illustrates a complex network of small ponds and wetlands typical of the coastal tundra, reflecting the intricate hydrology of the Bristol Bay watershed. The topography remains exceptionally flat, with subtle contour variations revealing the delicate drainage patterns that feed into the bay. This map provides a precise record of the shoreline and internal boundaries within the Public Land Survey System, including townships such as t17s r52w and t17s r53w, which are essential for understanding land divisions in this part of the state.
