2014 Map of Solomon C-2 NW

About this map

The Kachauik River winds through this expanse of the Seward Peninsula, defining the drainage patterns of the western portion of this 2014 survey. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant elevations and creek systems, most notably Eagle Cr, which bisects the central and northeastern sections of the quadrangle. In the southern reaches, the headwaters of Cheenik Cr begin their descent toward the coast. This map illustrates the remote, undeveloped character of the Alaska interior near Nome, where the landscape is structured by the Public Land Survey System grids, including t9s r21w and t10s r21w. The absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the role of these waterways as the primary landmarks in a region defined by its hydrography and relief.
