1990 Map of Ambler River D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Noatak River meanders through a landscape defined by the intersection of major federal conservation areas in the Brooks Range. This provisional survey documents the boundary between the Noatak National Preserve and Gates of the Arctic National Park as established by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980. The terrain is characterized by complex drainage systems, including the headwaters of Douglas Creek and the southern flow of Ningyoyak Creek. Large alpine water bodies such as Lake Amitchiak and Kipmik Lake sit amidst the high ridges of the Noatak Wilderness and Gates of the Arctic Wilderness. The map records an environment devoid of roads or trails, where the only movement follows natural corridors like Midas Creek or the southern Lake Matcharak.
