2015 Map of Ambler River A-5 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Kobuk Valley National Park dominates this sub-arctic landscape, where the wide corridor of the Kobuk River snakes through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The map captures a transition from the broad river valley into the northern foothills of the Waring Mountains to the south. This area is characterized by unique geological formations, most notably the Little Kobuk Sand Dunes, which sit east of the winding Tunutuk Cr. Several tributaries, including Niaktuwik Cr and Nakachelik Cr, drain the tundra and mountain slopes into the primary river system. This survey provides a modern look at the protected wilderness of the Northwest Arctic Borough, detailing the complex network of creeks and elevation changes across the Arctic Circle landscape without any permanent human settlements or roads present within these park boundaries.
