About this map

Marys Igloo and New Igloo are established along the winding waterways of the Seward Peninsula, highlighting a landscape defined by the shifting courses of the Kuzitrin River and Pilgrim River. The terrain is dominated by vast wetland complexes and thaw lakes, such as Lake Omiaktalik and Marys Lake, which are characteristic of the region's permafrost environment. In the southeast, Marys Mtn provides a rare point of elevation overlooking the low-lying drainage basins. The intricate network of channels, including Davidsons Slough and Grand Union Creek, illustrates the complex hydrology of this part of the Nome Census Area. This 2017 data reflects the sparse settlement patterns and the enduring importance of river access for navigation and subsistence in the Alaskan interior.
