2019 Map of Sleetmute B-6 SW

About this map

Chineekluk Mtn dominates the northeastern corner of this remote Alaskan landscape, marking the transition between the high ridges and the winding drainage systems that define the Bethel Census Area. The area is characterized by an intricate network of waterways, most notably Chineekluk Creek and Kiokluk Cr, which weave through the terrain. This U.S. Geological Survey topographic study illustrates the vast wilderness of the Sleetmute region, where the Public Land Survey System grid lines of townships like t14n r50w and t15n r49w intersect with a natural landscape of steep contours and glacial-carved valleys. The relationship between the high peak and the creek basins below suggests a classic subarctic watershed, captured with modern precision while remaining largely devoid of permanent human structures or roads.
