2019 Map of Sleetmute D-7 SW

About this map

The Kuskokwim Mountains dominate this region of interior Alaska, where high ridges transition into the drainage basins of the Kolmakof River. This terrain is defined by the elevation changes between the peaks and the wetlands of the river valley, providing a clear record of the hydrological network in the Bethel Census Area. The south-central portion of the map is anchored by the Horn Mountains, which rise above the surrounding landscape and feed various tributaries. Smaller waterways, including Getmuna Cr and Junujuk Cr, weave through the valleys, marking the natural corridors that historically dictated movement through this subarctic environment. The lack of infrastructure highlights the isolation of this wilderness block within the public land survey system, preserved here in its undeveloped state.
