About this map

Trader Mountain and the surrounding coastal lowlands of the Alaska Peninsula characterize this remote landscape as it was documented in the early 1960s. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including Steelhead Creek, the David River, and the Caribou River, which meander through marshy ground toward the Bering Sea and the North Pacific. Significant land designations such as the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge are delineated by a formal Refuge Boundary.

The coast along Pavlof Bay reveals complex tidal features including Jackson Lagoon, Chinaman Lagoon, and a smaller Lagoon. Settlement is nearly non-existent in this wilderness, though a solitary Cabin is marked near the southeastern coast, providing a rare sign of human habitation. Geographic landmarks like Divide Lake and the ridge simply labeled Trader assist in navigating this hydrologically active environment.
