1950 Map of Nome D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Kigluaik Mountains dominate this 1950s terrain on the Seward Peninsula, where the landscape is defined by its drainage basins and high-altitude lakes. Centered around the prominent Glacial Lake, the map traces the southern flow of the Sinuk (Sinrock) River as it gathers water from tributaries like American Creek and Ruby Creek. These waterways were critical for transport and prospecting long before the Nome Teller Highway provided more reliable overland access across the southern portion of the sheet.
