2017 Map of Nome C-1 SE

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Army Peak stands as the prominent height of land in this interior portion of the Seward Peninsula, where a dense network of gulches and creeks drains toward the Nome River. The landscape is defined by its gold-mining history, with features such as Gold Gulch, Goodluck Gulch, and Birthday Gulch suggesting the speculative prospecting that shaped this region's early 20th-century character. Access to this remote terrain is provided by the Kougarok Road (Nome-Taylor Highway) and Osborn Road, which skirt the western and southern slopes. Numerous small watercourses, including Osborn Cr and Discovery Cr, weave through the tundra and hills, illustrating the hydrological complexity of the area north of the Bering Sea coast. The pattern of named gulches like Quincy Gulch and Faraday Gulch provides specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use and mining claims in the Nome Census Area.
