1950 Map of Bendeleben B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Bendeleben Mountains dominate the southern half of this mid-century topographic study, their high ridgelines giving way to a complex drainage network that defines the Seward Peninsula landscape. The Kuzitrin River meanders across the northern lowlands, joined by the North Fork and South Fork amidst a terrain of scattered thermokarst lakes and marshy basins. This 1950s record provides a clear look at the region before significant modern development, anchored by the Kateel River Base Line which served as the primary surveying reference for much of western Alaska. Waterways like Minnie Creek, Ella Creek, and Boston Creek carve deep valleys into the northern slopes of the range, illustrating the heavy influence of fluvial erosion on this permafrost-underlain environment.
