2017 Map of Nome C-1 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

The Seward Peninsula interior is defined here by a series of steep drainages and prospector-named gulches east of the Nome River. The Kougarok Road (Nome-Taylor Highway) cuts through the northwestern corner of the quadrangle, serving as the primary corridor into this mineral-rich landscape. Prominent elevations like Osborn Dome overlook a network of gold-rush era waterways, including Gold Run, Nugget Gulch, and New Eldorado Cr. These names reflect the intense legacy of placer mining that shaped the region's geography. Toward the east, the terrain descends into the wetlands and braided channels of the Flambeau River, where smaller tributaries such as Tee-Pee Cr and Hazel Cr join the main flow. This survey documents the persistent landscape of the Alaska mining country, where old trails and creek names preserve the history of 20th-century exploration.
