2017 Map of Russian Mission A-5 NW

About this map

The Kuskokwim River dominates this region of the Bethel Census Area, winding through a complex network of wetlands and alluvial channels. This 2017 survey reveals the intricate hydrography of the Alaskan wilderness, where the Gweek River and Bogus Creek navigate a landscape shaped by seasonal shifts and water movement. To the southeast, Yukoniluk Creek further illustrates the dense drainage patterns characteristic of this subarctic environment. While the map is devoid of modern settlements or roads, it provides a precise technical record of the public land survey system, including township boundaries like t13n r64w and t12n r65w. This documentation is essential for understanding the remote topography of the Russian Mission area, capturing the natural state of the river systems before further environmental or geomorphological changes occur.
