About this map

Bering Land Bridge National Preserve occupies the northern reaches of this topographic survey, marking a protected landscape on the Seward Peninsula. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage system where the Niukluk River and Pargon River carve through high-elevation contours. In the southeast, the prominent peak of Chauik Mtn stands as a significant landmark overlooking a network of tributary streams. These waterways, including Nesbit Cr, Dillon Cr, and McKelvie Cr, illustrate the natural irrigation of this subarctic environment. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote, undeveloped character of the region in the early 21st century, where land management boundaries like t3s r26w and 4s r25w provide the only human-imposed structure to the wilderness.
