2014 Map of Bendeleben C-1 NE

About this map

The interior drainages of the Northwest Arctic, Alaska region are defined by a complex network of waterways flowing through the Seward Peninsula’s remote backcountry. In this 2014 survey, the landscape is partitioned by the t4n r17w and t4n r16w townships, where significant named streams like Candle Cr and Mosquito Cr dictate the topography. The presence of numerous creek names, including Eldorado Cr and Bonanza Cr, suggests a landscape historically scrutinized by prospectors and miners, as these specific names are frequently associated with Alaskan mineral exploration. Moving south through t3n r17w and t3n r16w, the terrain is further etched by Dome Cr and Glacier Cr. This topographic study reveals a wilderness devoid of modern roads or permanent structures, highlighting the seasonal and navigational importance of these waterways for those traversing the Alaskan interior.
