2019 Map of Sleetmute B-2 SW

About this map

The Hoholitna River meanders through the southwestern corner of this 2019 survey, defining the lower elevations of an otherwise high-relief interior landscape. This map documents a remote portion of the Bethel Census Area where the absence of roads or permanent settlements highlights the wilderness character of the region. The terrain is structured by a series of legal boundaries including T14n R41w and T14n R42w, which provide a geographic framework for this part of the Alaskan bush. Historically, this area represents a critical landscape for understanding the natural drainage patterns that feed into the larger Kuskokwim River system. The detailed contour work from the National Elevation Dataset reveals the intricate ridge lines and valley systems that have remained largely untouched by modern development or industrial infrastructure.
