1971 Map of Chandalar D-6

About this map

Dietrich River serves as the central artery through this Arctic landscape, carving a broad valley flanked by high peaks of the Brooks Range. Documented in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by its water systems and elevation, with the massive presence of Table Mountain in the northeast and Snowden Mountain to the south. A prominent Winter Trail follows the river corridor, indicating a historical transportation route used when the ground was frozen, long before modern permanent infrastructure dominated the region. Numerous tributaries, including Kuyuktuvuk Creek and Nutirwik Creek, feed into the primary river valley, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of this subarctic environment. The map also captures the North Boundary Fairbanks Meridian, a critical surveying line for land management in the Alaskan interior.
