2017 Map of Norton Bay B-1 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Nulato Hills dominate this portion of the Alaskan interior, providing a stark topographical record of the divide between two major subarctic drainage systems. Within this landscape, the headwaters of the N Fork Unalakleet River and the Unalakleet River flow toward the southwest, eventually reaching Norton Sound. Conversely, the S Fork Nulato River drains in the opposite direction toward the Yukon River valley. This 2017 survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns and ridgelines of the Norton Bay region, mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey using modern elevation data to trace the remote divide where these river systems originate.
