FEEDBACK ........................... 161 INTRODUCTION The Alaska Peninsula splits Bristol Bay and t he Bering Sea on the north and west from the Pacific Ocean on the south and east. This rugged peninsula juts out in a southwesterly crescent from the mainland beginning at the 59th parallel of latitude and running nearly 400 miles to about t:he 54th parallel. The southwestward crescent is continued for another 1,500 miles by ~ the Aleutian Islands. The backbone of the Alaska Peninsula is the Aleutian Mountain Range. This volcanic mountain range lies along the Pacific coast on the east side of the peninsula. Numerous peaks rise above 6,000 feet elevation. This creates a Pacific coast that is rocky and heavily fjorded. The Aleutian Range, including the Aleutian Islands, contains nearly 50 volcanoes known to have erupted or vented steam since 1760. They are part of a chain of volcanoes that rim the Pacific Ocean known as the "Ring of Fire". The Alaska Peninsula and Becharof National Wildlife Refuges are superimposed over this rugged range of mountains (Figure 1). ) Aleutian Range volcanoes form part of the "Ring of Fire". This classic shot shows, north to south, Mt. Martin (Katmai NP&P), Kejulik Mts., Mt. Peulik (Becharof NWR), and Mt. Chiginagak (Alaska Peninsula NWR). 10/92, DAD The Becharof Refuge contains approximately 1.2 million acres (Figure 2). It is 10 miles south of King Salmon and 295 miles southwest· of Anchorage. The refuge lies between Katmai National Park and Alaska ) Peninsula Refuge. The refuge landscape consists of tundra, lakes, , wetlands, and volcanic peaks. Becharof Lake, the second largest lake in Alaska, is nestled between the low tundra wetlands to the north and west and the Aleutian Mountain Range to the east and south.

References collected in 1983 sat for over two years awaiting further work and funding, and. for a time it appeared that they would never make it into print. We have Jim Fall to thank for spearheading efforts to resurrect the project in 1986, offering suggestions for updating the collection with new material, reviewing citations and introductory text, and providing the funds for printing. Others contributing additional reference material to the updated collection include Elizaheth Andrews. Susan Georgette, Judy Morris. and Janet Schichnes. Thanks also to Dan Foster, who expertly prepared the maps appearing in the introduction. to Kathy Arndt, who painstakingly edited an early rough draft of the hihliography. and to Margie Yadlosky, who efficiently handled data entry and editing tasks on the data file. Cover artwork was the creation of Tim Sczawinski. Finally. special thanks go to Louis Brown for his programming wizardry which created the microcomputer version of the data base and the indexing routines.

  • Alaska Peninsula Becharof National Wildlife Refuges
    Fishery Management Plan ALASKA PENINSULA BECHAROF NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGES July 1994 Region 7 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service • Department of the Interior FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN ALASKA PENINSULA AND BECHAROF NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGES Fiscal Years 1994 - 1998 Prepared By: King Salmon Fishery Resource Office U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service P.O. Box 277 King Salmon, Alaska 99613 May 1994 SUMMARY STATEMENT The Alaska Peninsula and Becharof National Wildlife Refuges Fishery Management Plan (Plan) provides the management direction necessary to ensure conservation of fishery resources and habitat. In addition, the Plan provides for continued use of fishery resources by subsistence, commercial, and recreational users consistent with the purposes for which the Alaska Peninsula and Becharof refuges (Complex) were established and are managed. The Complex's biological and physical environment is described and fishery resources, human use, management history, and major issues and concerns are discussed. This information was obtained from the Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plans, a literature search, and discussions with Alaska Department of Fish and Game personnel. Objectives and tasks are developed to address the issues and concerns. Federal tasks are assigned priorities and costs for each year of continuation. The Plan encompasses a five year period, at which time it will be revised. Major issues and concerns identified include the following: competition between user groups; incomplete salmon escapement data bases to refine management of the Complex fish populations; and inadequate fishery law enforcement. In some cases, concerns were identified because of the perception that they would develop into serious problems if current levels of use or consumption were allowed to continue or expand.

  • Ugashik Lakes
    Chapter 3 - Region 13: Ugashik Lakes Region 13: Ugashik Lakes Summary of Resources and Uses in the Region Region Boundary Region 13 includes the uplands on a portion of the Alaska Peninsula that includes the Ugashik Lakes and the area eastwards to the boundary of the Lake and Peninsula Borough (Map 3-13). The Region is bounded on the west and north by Region 12, on the east by the Kodiak Island Borough. The southern boundary is generally along the Dog Salmon River corridor. There are no communities in the Region. Except for navigable waterbodies and three sections, there are no other state-owned or selected uplands in Region 13. State Lands: Ownership and Acreage State-owned navigable waterbodies, notably Upper and Lower Ugashik Lakes, dominate the western one-quarter of the Region. Much of the remainder is in Federal ownership and within the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge. Native ownership of land is concentrated southwest of Lower Ugashik Lake between the Ugashik River and the Dog Salmon River. The plan applies to 1,541 acres of state-owned uplands. The plan also applies to state-owned shorelands (acreages of shorelands have not been calculated). Physical Geography Region 13 is within the Alaska Peninsula ecological province and encompasses some well dissected but rugged terrain. Drainage is predominantly westward towards Bristol Bay. The principal drainages are the Ugashik Lakes and tributaries including Ugashik, Crooked, Moore, Deer, and Black Creeks. The western portion of the Region rises to the spine of the Alaska Peninsula; thus the highest elevations are attained along the eastern boundary of the Region in the vicinity of Deer Mountain (elev.
