2015 Map of Candle C-1 NE

About this map

The Tagagawik River carves a meandering path through the eastern reaches of this remote Alaskan interior landscape, its valley floor contrasting with the surrounding upland ridges. This 2015 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the drainage patterns and relief across a largely unpopulated wilderness within the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, with ridges rising steeply from the river basin. Surveyed boundaries such as t4n r3w and t3n r2w establish the grid of the Public Land Survey System over this undeveloped terrain. This map serves as a precise record of the natural hydrology and land forms before any significant human infrastructure or development reached this section of the Arctic interior.
