Shaktoolik River meanders through the western portion of this 2017 survey, carving a path through the interior of the Seward Peninsula region. The landscape is defined by the significant elevations of the Nulato Hills, which dominate the eastern and central sections of the quadrangle. This map primarily documents the natural topography and drainage patterns of the area before they are altered by any significant human infrastructure. The absence of roads, settlements, or structures emphasizes the isolation of this corner of the Nome Census Area. For those interested in the environmental history of western Alaska, this document captures the precise contour of the river valley and the surrounding ridges within the t10s r9w and t11s r8w land divisions.
