1972 Map of Nome D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The high peaks of the Kigluayak Mountains dominate this region north of Nome, centered on the dramatic elevations of Mount Osborn and Tigaraha Mountain. The landscape is a complex network of glacial valleys and alpine basins, where the headwaters of the Nome River and Sinuk River originate. A notable inland water body, Salmon Lake, sits near a small Landing Strip and serves as a significant landmark in the southern reaches of the mountains.
