2017 Map of Norton Bay B-3 NE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Kingmetalik Creek winds through this high-latitude terrain of the Norton Bay B-3 NE quadrangle, carving a drainage pattern through the unnamed peaks of the Nome Census Area. The landscape is defined by its extreme isolation and dramatic elevation changes, captured here by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2017. Outside of the primary waterway of Kingmetalik Cr, the map is dominated by the Public Land Survey System grid, demarcating boundaries such as t12s r8w and t12s r7w. The absence of roads, structures, or named settlements in this 7.5-minute series emphasizes the wilderness character of this portion of the Seward Peninsula, where the relief of the land itself is the primary subject for study.
