1955 Map of Candle B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this 1955 Alaskan wilderness, separating the drainage systems of the interior. The landscape is defined by its primary watercourses, including the West Fork Buckland River and the Koyuk River, which originate in the complex topography of the Seward Peninsula region. This survey, compiled from aerial photography, captures the terrain as it existed before any roads or permanent settlements were established in this particular corridor. The inclusion of the Kateel River Base Line serves as a critical surveying reference point for the region, while the East Fork adds further detail to the intricate river system that dominates the northern reaches of the quadrangle.
