2016 Map of Ambler River A-1 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

Kogoluktuk River meanders across the northwestern portion of this Arctic quadrangle, defining a landscape shaped by glacial and alluvial processes in the Ambler Lowland. This 2016 survey illustrates a remote expanse of the Alaska-Northwest Arctic Borough, where the terrain transitions from the low-lying river plains in the west toward the increasing elevations of the eastern hills. The lack of man-made structures, roads, or permanent settlements underscores the wilderness character of the region, emphasizing the natural topography and the intricate drainage patterns of the Kogoluktuk River system. The map serves as a contemporary record of this sub-Arctic environment, focusing on the hydrological and geomorphic features of the Ambler basin before any modern development or infrastructure has reached this specific sector.
