1955 Map of Baird Mountains C-4

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Nakolik River flows through the heart of this Arctic landscape, captured during a 1955 survey of the remote Brooks Range foothills. The terrain is defined by its complex drainage systems, where the Nakolikurak Creek and the North Fork Squirrel River carve through high-elevation contour lines. At this mid-century moment, the land remains largely untouched by infrastructure, with no roads or trails recorded across the entire quadrangle. The map highlights the natural hydrology of the region, including the eastern flow of the Omar River. These watercourses serve as the primary landmarks in a territory where township and range lines were predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management but remained unsurveyed and unmarked on the ground at the time of publication.
