About this map

The Kobuk River snakes through the center of this mid-century survey, defining a landscape of complex meanders and shifting sand deposits. A notable point of human activity appears at Onion Portage, a site significant for its position along the river's path. To the north, the Jade Mountains rise above the drainage of Jade Creek, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is anchored by the Waring Mountains.
