How is a fix that is NOT named typically described?

A fix that is not named is typically described using specific navigational details to provide clarity for pilots. This includes identifying a NAVAID (Navigational Aid), along with a radial from that aid and a specific distance. The phrase "Mile Fix" is often appended to indicate how far from the NAVAID the fix is located, providing a clear reference point that aids in navigation and ensures that all pilots understand the exact location being referenced.

Using the NAVAID as a basis allows pilots to leverage established navigation aids that they are likely familiar with, making it easier to relate the unnamed fix to their flight path. This method of description ensures precision and enhances the safety of flight operations, as pilots can accurately determine their position in relation to known navigational aids.
