2017 Map of Norton Bay B-2 SE

About this map

Nulato Hills topography dominates this 2017 survey, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Unalakleet River. Flowing through the eastern and southern portions of the quadrangle, the river serves as the primary hydrological feature in an otherwise high-relief interior. The map illustrates a remote wilderness character typical of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, lacking any named settlements, roads, or human infrastructure. Instead, the focus is on the intricate contouring of the uplands and the drainage patterns that feed into the Unalakleet watershed. The lack of cultural features emphasizes the territory's role as an undeveloped corridor in the Alaskan interior, partitioned solely by the surveyed township lines of t13s r5w, t13s r4w, t14s r5w, and t14s r4w.
