About this map

The Seward Peninsula Railroad traces a path through this coastal landscape during the mid-twentieth century, connecting the hinterlands of the Second Judicial Division to the waters of Norton Sound. This reconnaissance study illustrates the mining and transportation infrastructure established in the wake of the Gold Rush, highlighting the Big Hurrah Mine and remote settlements like Council and Casadepaga. The geography is defined by the transition from the Kigluaik Mountains in the west to the Darby Mountains in the east, with a complex system of lagoons and spits such as Safety Sound and Golovnin Lagoon along the southern coastline.
