2019 Map of Sutwik Island D-6 NW

About this map

Aniakchak National Monument and the Aniakchak National Preserve dominate this remote Alaskan landscape in the Lake and Peninsula Borough. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, centered around the volcanic features and high ridges of Jaw Mtn. This environment is carved by a network of drainage systems including High Cr and Lava Cr, which flow through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. In the southern portion, the protected status of the land is further emphasized by the Aniakchak Wild and Scenic River, which follows a winding path near Hidden Cr. The lack of road infrastructure or permanent settlements reflects the preserved state of this volcanic wilderness, providing a clear view of the natural topography and protected river corridors as they were documented in 2019.
