About this map

Bluff sits on the southern edge of the Seward Peninsula, overlooking the waters of Norton Sound where the coastline turns sharply at Topkok Head. In this mid-century period, the landscape is defined by its seasonal access, marked by the extensive Winter Trail that cuts through the interior river valleys. The drainage system is complex, with the Eldorado River, Kocheblok River, and Skookum River carving through the terrain alongside numerous prospector-named tributaries like Sourdough Creek, Goldbottom Creek, and Eureka Creek. Near the coast, small clusters of Cabins suggest a transient or seasonal occupancy typical of the region's mining and subsistence history. The northeastern corner is dominated by the broad delta of the Fox River, where Telephone Slough winds through the lowlands before meeting the sea.
