About this map

The Continental Divide defines the northern reaches of this remote landscape, marking the hydrological boundary between the vast interior watersheds and the western drainage systems. Below these high ridgelines, the Inglutalik River serves as the primary drainage, meandering southward through a series of valleys as it crosses the boundary between the Nome Census Area and the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. The survey highlights the transition from upland divides to the winding river bottom, where the water path dictates the natural travel corridors through the region. Land use here remains defined by large-scale public land survey system blocks, including t1s r4w, t2s r4w, and t3s r4w, which delineate the territory without the presence of permanent settlements or infrastructure.
