About this map

The Koyuk River flows through the northern reaches of this landscape in the Nome Census Area, where the topography transitions from the river valley into a series of interior ridges. The drainage patterns of Willow Cr and Kenwood Cr illustrate the complex watershed of this subarctic terrain, long before significant modern infrastructure reached these remote townships. The map details the Public Land Survey System divisions, including t4s r14w, t5s r14w, and t6s r13w, which provide the essential grid for locating land claims and identifying historical resource boundaries in the region.
