2019 Map of Sleetmute D-2 NW

About this map

The Kuskokwim Mountains dominate the interior landscape of the Bethel Census Area in this 2019 survey. The area is characterized by a series of north-to-south trending ridges and valleys, with elevations rising sharply above the drainage basins. Cutting through the western sections, the waters of Moose Cr navigate a complex network of wetlands and lower-lying terrain, illustrating the intricate hydrography typical of this region's wilderness. This map provides a detailed view of the terrain before the modern impacts of climate and geomorphology continue to shift these remote Alaskan waterways. Without any named settlements or roads present on the sheet, the map serves as a primary record of the untouched natural geography and the legal township and range boundaries that organize this part of the Alaskan interior.
