2014 Map of Candle D-6 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Kiwalik River winds through this subarctic terrain in the Northwest Arctic Borough, serving as the central hydrological artery for a network of mineral-named tributaries. This 2014 survey captures a landscape defined by its placer mining heritage, evidenced by the cluster of gold-rush era stream names such as First Chance Cr, Eldorado Cr, and Bonanza Cr. The topography is marked by significant drainages like Burnside Cr and the descriptively named Rain Gulch in the western reaches. While modern in its production, the map preserves the traditional naming conventions of the Seward Peninsula, from the western Candle Cr to the eastern Lava Cr and Wabash Cr. The lack of established roads or structures highlights the isolation and preserved natural state of this northern interior region.
