1955 Map of Candle D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Buckland River carves a winding path across this portion of Alaska, its wide oxbows and surrounding wetlands defining the landscape during this 1955 survey. The river's meanders create a complex network of marshes and smaller tributaries, including the Kikikuk River, which flows into the main channel from the south. This terrain represents the remote interior of the Northwest Arctic before modern development, where the primary signs of human presence are isolated Cabins located near the riverbanks.
