The Seward Peninsula interior north of Nome reveals a landscape defined by an intricate network of waterways draining toward the Norton Sound. The Eldorado River dominates the western portion of the terrain, while the Bonanza River cuts through the southeastern corner. This 2017 survey details the hydrography of the region, where numerous small tributaries—often bearing the names of early prospectors or miners—feed the larger river systems. Notable among these are Kate and Anna Cr, San Francisco Cr, and Flickinger Cr. The drainage patterns, such as those of Venetia Cr and Gassman Cr, provide a clear picture of the watershed as it was documented in the early 21st century. The map serves as a precise record of the physical geography and established nomenclature within this part of the Nome Census Area.
