2017 Map of Teller A-3 SW

About this map

The Nome-Teller Highway/Bob Blodgett Highway cuts across the northeastern corner of this remote Seward Peninsula landscape, providing the primary overland access through a region defined by its historic mineral prospects. The terrain is a complex network of drainage basins, most notably the Right Fork Bluestone River and its numerous tributaries. Names like Gold Hill, Gold Run, and Gold Standard Cr reflect the area's prospecting legacy, where early 20th-century miners combed these creeks for placer deposits. Other significant watercourses including Little Windy Cr, Skookum Cr, and Nickle Cr illustrate the high density of named drainages that characterize this subarctic interior. The map reveals a transition from these lower creek beds up toward higher elevations near Quartz Cr and Upper Quartz Cr, offering a detailed view of the natural hydrology and topography that shaped the local mining economy.
