2017 Map of Candle B-6 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

The Continental Divide traverses this remote section of the Seward Peninsula, marking the structural spine where waters part toward different Alaskan drainage basins. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its topographic isolation at the boundary between the Northwest Arctic Borough and the Nome Census Area. While human infrastructure is largely absent, the hydrology of the region is anchored by First Chance Cr in the southwest corner. The map documents the vast, uninhabited terrain within the public land survey system blocks of t1n r16w and t1s r16w, providing a detailed view of the natural elevation and watercourses as they existed in the early 21st century.
