1990 Map of Ambler River C-4

About this map

Noatak National Preserve and the surrounding wilderness are defined by a complex network of unnamed peaks and glacial valleys in this remote Arctic landscape. Published in 1990 based on aerial photography from the late 1970s and early 1980s, the map reveals the confluence of high-elevation tundra and the hydrological systems that feed the northern interior. The Cutler River winds through the central and western sections, joined by tributaries like Amakomanak Creek to the east. This provisional survey captures the transition into protected lands, including the northern edge of Kobuk Valley National Park. The topography is dominated by unnamed summits reaching over 3,000 feet, highlighting the trackless nature of the Noatak Wilderness before modern infrastructure reached this part of the Northwest Arctic Borough.
