2015 Map of Ambler River A-6 SE

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Kobuk Valley National Park dominates this Arctic landscape, where the northern drainage patterns of the Waring Mountains meet a complex network of wetlands and tundra. The topographic survey reveals a series of meandering waterways, including Niaktuuk Cr and Ahnewetut Cr, which navigate through a dense concentration of thaw lakes and ponds typical of the Brooks Range foothills. These seasonal and perennial water systems shape the migratory corridors and natural boundaries within this protected wilderness area. The southern margin of the map is defined by the rising elevations of the Waring Mountains, providing a stark contrast to the lake-strewn flats to the north. This 2015 data from the U.S. Geological Survey preserves the specific hydrographic state of the region's permafrost-influenced terrain before further shifts in the Arctic climate.
