1950 Map of Bendeleben C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Fairhaven Ditch traces a deliberate path through this portion of the Seward Peninsula, a man-made water conveyance system built to support hydraulic mining operations during the region's gold mining era. This infrastructure cuts across the landscape near Kettle Dome, leading toward a small cluster of Cabins that served as a remote outpost for miners or ditch tenders. The rugged terrain is defined by the convergence of the Burnt River and the Kugruk River, which carve through the high elevations and marshy lowlands of the Bendeleben Mountains.
