1950 Map of Nome C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Gold mining infrastructure dominates the landscape north of Nome in this 1950s record, revealing a complex network of water management essential to the region's extraction history. Extensive waterworks like the Miocene Ditch and various Elevated Ditches wind through the hills, supported by a Pipe Flume and multiple Sluice Gates. This industrial footprint is tied together by the Seward Peninsula RR, which tracks through the valleys past Perkinsville and the prominent Anvil Mountain.
