1985 Map of Ambler River A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Bornite serves as a primary point of reference in this northwestern Alaskan landscape, situated near the headwaters of several drainages. The area is defined by the meeting of high terrain and the broad Lowland, with Asbestos Mountain and Bannock Mountain rising above the river valleys. The hydrography is dominated by the Ambler River and the Shungnak River, which meander through the northern and central sections. A Tractor Trail provides a rare terrestrial transport route through the wilderness, connecting remote points across the drainage basins of Ruby Creek and Jay Creek. To the east, the Kogoluktuk River and its tributary Canyon Creek carve through the landscape, illustrating the complex drainage patterns characteristic of the Brooks Range foothills during the mid-1980s.
