2017 Map of Chandalar B-6 SW

About this map

Coldfoot serves as the primary focal point of this Brooks Range interior landscape, situated along the western edge of a region defined by high-elevation ridges and drainage basins. The area is characterized by a series of significant watercourses, including the westward-flowing Marion Cr and Myrtle Cr, which carve through the steep terrain between townships t29n r11w and t29n r10w. To the south, Winers Lake sits in a lower-lying basin, providing a distinct contrast to the surrounding peak-and-valley topography. The map illustrates a remote wilderness where human activity is centered on the historic settlement of Coldfoot, with the rest of the quadrangle dominated by the natural hydrology of streams like Howard Cr. This topographic study reveals the intricate drainage patterns essential for navigating this part of the Alaskan interior.
