1951 Map of Candle D-6

About this map

Candle stands as the primary hub of activity in this remote subarctic corridor during the early 1950s, situated at the confluence of Jump Creek and Candle Creek. The landscape is heavily defined by mining infrastructure, with extensive Ditch systems, a Pipeline, and a Telephone Line connecting the settlement to various outposts and cabins along the water. The presence of Mine Tailings and two distinct airfields, Candle No 1 Field and Candle No 2 Field, highlights the area's dependence on aerial transport and resource extraction.
