2014 Map of Candle B-6 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Northwest Arctic Borough Nome Census Area boundary cuts across this remote landscape, marking a jurisdictional divide in the Alaskan interior. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Kiwalik River, which flows through the northern half of the quadrangle. In the southeast, Wilson Cr carves its way through the hills, illustrating the drainage patterns of the Seward Peninsula. A significant historical element of this map is the Old Mail Route, which traverses the eastern side of the river. This trail serves as a reminder of early 20th-century transportation networks that once linked remote Arctic outposts before modern infrastructure, following the natural contours of the river valley to facilitate travel through the seasonal elements.
