2017 Map of Norton Bay C-3 NE

About this map

Nulato Hills dominate the interior landscape of this region in the Nome Census Area, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of high ridges and deep drainage basins. The Shaktoolik River meanders across the northern portion of the sheet, while the Kingmetolik Creek cuts through the central and southern reaches. This topographic survey captures the complex hydrology of the eastern Norton Bay area, showing the precise elevation contours that dictate the flow of these significant waterways through the Alaskan wilderness. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the remote character of this terrain, where geographic navigation relies entirely on the relationship between the rising hills and the major river systems.
