About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the northern reach of this landscape, a region defined by high mountain passes and an intricate network of waterways within the Noatak Wilderness. The drainage system is anchored by the Redstone River, which flows through the western portion of the quadrangle, joined by tributaries such as Cross Creek and Kalutivik Creek. This 1990 provisional edition, based on aerial photography from the late 1970s, illustrates a roadless wilderness where terrain is the primary feature of interest. Significant topographic landmarks like Ivishak Pass provide critical navigational waypoints through the high elevations. The map reveals the unmodified state of the Arctic interior prior to any significant modern infrastructure development, focusing strictly on the natural hydrologic and geologic contours of the Brooks Range foothills.
