2019 Map of Naknek D-5 NW

About this map

Portage Creek sits as the primary human footprint in this corner of the Dillingham Census Area, positioned amidst a vast network of wetlands and small lakes. The landscape is defined by its intricate hydrography, characterized by the Keefer Cutoff and countless unnamed water bodies that indicate a highly saturated alluvial environment. The mapping reveals a terrain shaped by the seasonal movement of water, where the lack of established roads highlights a reliance on waterways or seasonal trails for local transit. This 2019 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise look at the township and range lines across this portion of southwestern Alaska, documenting the intersection of the T14S and T15S R50W boundaries near the main settlement.
