1971 Map of Chandalar B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Chandalar Lake anchors the northeast corner of this Arctic landscape, where the waters of Rosalie Creek and Indian Creek gather before feeding the drainage systems to the south. The terrain is defined by the braided path of the Chandalar River and its major tributary, the North Fork Chandalar River. This 1971 survey reveals a remote interior where human presence is marked by isolated Cabins and a primitive Winter Trail that follows the valley of Big Creek. A single Gold deposit near Goldbug Creek suggests the area's mineral prospects, while a remote Landing Strip near the lake serves as the primary connection to the outside world. The map also records family-named or descriptive landmarks like Woodland Echo Pass and the distinctive East Buttons, illustrating the early naming conventions of surveyors and bush pilots in the Brooks Range foothills.
