2017 Map of Russian Mission B-7 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Johnson River meanders across this subarctic terrain in the Bethel Census Area, defining a complex network of wetlands and small lakes that characterize this portion of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reveals a landscape dominated by water and shifting alluvial patterns, with very few named landmarks beyond the primary river system. The vast density of ponds and seasonal wetlands captured here highlights the hydrological complexity of this roadless region of Alaska. Such maps are critical for understanding the environmental flux of the delta, as the shifting course of the river and the formation of new thermokarst lakes continuously reshape the local topography.
