1954 Map of Candle B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this interior Alaskan wilderness, serving as the primary geographic spine that separates the western and eastern watersheds of the region. This 1954 topographic study, based on aerial photography from the mid-1950s, reveals a landscape defined by its river systems rather than human infrastructure. The Tagagawik River flows across the northeastern portion of the sheet, while the Inglutalik River and the Baz River drain the southwestern and southeastern corners, respectively. This map depicts the area under the administration of the Bureau of Land Management, with land lines representing unsurveyed and unmarked locations predetermined according to the Kateel River Meridian. The absence of roads or trails emphasizes the preservation of the natural drainage patterns across the divide.
