2019 Map of Ugashik B-2 SW

About this map

Aleutian Range peaks dominate this coastal portion of the Alaska Peninsula, where steep topography meets the northern reaches of the Pacific Ocean. The landscape is defined by dramatic elevation changes, centered around the volcanic profile of Mt Alai and the isolated prominence of Lone Hill to the southwest. This 2019 survey documents a wilderness area split by the administrative boundary of the Lake and Peninsula Borough and Kodiak Island Borough. The drainage of Kialagvik Creek provides a focal point for the interior lowlands, carving a path through the townships toward the coastline. This map is a primary resource for understanding the contemporary geomorphology of this remote maritime frontier, showing the intersection of glacial-carved mountains and the sea.
