2019 Map of Russian Mission A-3 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2019About this map
Nyac sits at the base of a high-relief landscape where the headwaters of the Tuluksak River begin their winding descent. This 2019 survey of the Bethel Census Area reveals a region shaped by gold mining history, evidenced by the specific naming of drainages and topographical depressions. Steep valleys and ridges are carved by a network of waterways including Granite Cr, Sabula Cr, and Nugget Cr, which feed into the larger river system. The presence of Shovel Gulch and Mary Lou Gulch near the settlement area suggests the enduring legacy of 20th-century placer operations in the Kuskokwim Mountains. The map provides a detailed view of the terrain as it appeared during recent decades of modern resource management, showing the complex drainage patterns of the Dugout Cr and Max Cr drainages.
