2014 Map of Teller C-3 SW

About this map

Continental Divide winds through the high terrain of the Seward Peninsula in this 2014 topographic study of the Alaskan interior near Nome. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the S Fork Nuluk River and the Nuluk River, which carve through the elevations of the Kuzitrin River basin. The absence of roads or permanent settlements across the townships of t2n r37w and t3n r38w highlights the untouched character of this subarctic wilderness. Smaller drainages like Arctic Cr feed into the larger river systems, illustrating a complex hydrologic network that has remained largely unchanged for generations. This map provides a detailed record of the physical geography and natural boundaries that dictate movement and land use in one of Alaska’s most secluded regions.
