2017 Map of Candle A-6 SW

About this map

The upper reaches of the Kwik River basin dominate this landscape in the Nome Census Area of Alaska. This survey details the high-latitude drainage systems that define the Seward Peninsula's interior, where Salmon Cr and Flat Cr flow through distinct township sections such as t4s r16w and t5s r16w. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of seasonal and perennial watercourses, including the headwaters of Kwik Cr. Without permanent settlements or roads, the map serves as a primary record of the topographic contours and hydrological patterns essential for understanding the natural geography and potential mineral exploration routes in this remote region. The precise delineation of township and range lines provides a structural framework for land identification in a wilderness area devoid of modern infrastructure.
