2014 Map of Candle A-5 SE

About this map

Dime Landing sits along a sweeping bend of the Koyuk River, serving as a vital point of navigation in this interior Alaskan landscape. The terrain is defined by the water networks of Kenwood Cr, Dime Cr, and Alameda Cr, which carve through the rising elevations of the Seward Peninsula. A single terrestrial artery, the Koyuk Hotsprings Road, provides the primary overland connection through the township grids of the region. This 2014 survey documents the enduring geography of the area, where the river remains the central feature for both transport and subsistence. The map illustrates how small-scale settlements like Dime Landing are positioned at the confluence of hydrological and topographical boundaries, reflecting the logistical realities of life in the Alaskan bush.
