About this map

Granite Mountain dominates the western landscape of this remote subarctic region, situated along the border of the Northwest Arctic Borough and Nome Census Area. This 2014 survey documents a rugged expanse of the Seward Peninsula defined by the headwaters of the Peace River and its numerous tributaries. The drainage network is dense, featuring Cub Cr, Rock Cr, and Boulder Cr, which carve through the high-elevation terrain. This area represents a transition point in the Alaskan interior where traditional passage is marked by the historical Hotsprings to Mail Route. The presence of the Sweepstakes Road cutting north-south across the eastern section suggests contemporary access for mineral exploration or remote transport, linking the seasonal drainages of Anzac Cr and Spring Cr to the broader regional topography.
