USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Nome serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, situated where the Snake River meets the Bering Sea. The landscape reveals a post-gold rush infrastructure transition, with mining legacy evident at Dredge Camp and small outposts like Dexter and Banner. To the east, Fort Davis stands near the mouth of the Nome River, while the northern interior is dominated by the high peaks of the Seward Peninsula, including Mount Osborn and Tigarahe Mountain.
