2017 Map of Candle A-6 SE

About this map

Quartz Creek and Willow Creek are the primary drainage systems defining this remote landscape in the Nome Census Area. This 2017 survey reveals the intricate topography of the Seward Peninsula, where these waterways have carved distinct valleys through the high ground. The map details the Public Land Survey System grids, including sections of t4s r15w, t5s r14w, and t6s r15w, which provide a precise framework for the undeveloped terrain. While devoid of permanent settlements or roads, the arrangement of the stream networks suggests a classic Alaskan interior landscape of tundra and watershed, where the land remains largely defined by its natural hydrology and elevation contours rather than human infrastructure.
