2014 Map of Candle D-3 NE

About this map

Fish River carves a winding path through this portion of the Northwest Arctic, serving as the dominant geographic feature in an otherwise largely unnamed landscape. This 2014 survey highlights the intricate contouring of the interior terrain, where the river's basin dictates the shape of the surrounding ridges and valleys. The map primarily reflects the vast Public Land Survey System divisions, delineating townships such as t7n r7w and t6n r7w within the Seward Meridian. This representation is essential for understanding the administrative and hydrographic layout of this remote Alaskan interior before more recent environmental or development changes, providing a precise record of the watercourse as it existed early in the twenty-first century.
