2017 Map of Saint Michael A-1 NW

About this map

The Kogok River and Pikmiktalik River define this remote expanse of the Alaskan tundra, where water and land exist in a complex, braided relationship. This 2017 survey illustrates the intricate network of lakes, ponds, and wetlands that characterize the drainage basin. The landscape is marked by the administrative boundary between the Kusilvak Census Area and the Nome Census Area, a line that cuts across the natural flow of the local river systems. Unlike many maps of the American West, this region lacks the grid of roads and settlements, reflecting the preservation of a landscape dictated by seasonal freeze and thaw rather than industrial development. Researchers can observe how the rivers wind through townships t26s r20w and t26s r19w, revealing the shifting hydrologic patterns of the Alaskan coastal plain.
