2019 Map of Sleetmute D-6 NE

About this map

The Kuskokwim River defines the southeastern corner of this Alaskan interior landscape, serving as the primary drainage and historical corridor for the surrounding highlands. This 2019 survey documents a wilderness terrain characterized by significant elevation changes, where the drainages of Bell Cr and Central Cr carve through the northern and southern reaches of the quadrangle. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote character of the Bethel Census Area, where human presence is indicated primarily by the township and range lines of t22n r48w and t21n r47w. This map is an essential record of the contemporary Alaskan backcountry, showing the intricate natural topography and hydrologic patterns of the region's tributary systems as they flow toward the main river channel.
