2015 Map of Ambler River A-4 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The settlement of Ambler serves as the focal point of this Northwest Arctic survey, situated at the confluence of the Kobuk River and the south-flowing Ambler River. The community's infrastructure is clearly defined, featuring local routes like Ambler Avenue, Waring Street, and Brooks Street, which connect the residential area to the vital Ambler Airport. The surrounding geography is defined by a complex network of arctic waterways, including the winding Kopshesut Cr and Mishuk Cr, which weave through the lowlands west of the main river systems. This 2015 study illustrates the intersection of a modern remote hub with its traditional riverine environment, showing the local Landfill Access Road extending into the brush, while the broader landscape remains dominated by the broad, braided channels of the Kobuk.
