About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses the southern portion of this landscape, preserving a vast, undeveloped wilderness in the Alaskan interior. The Noatak River dominates the northern half of the quadrangle, carving a wide, braided course through the terrain and collecting drainage from several significant tributaries. Watercourses like Midas Creek, Ningoyak Cr, and Tunukuchak Cr define the hydrological network, illustrating the complex flow patterns of the Arctic watershed. This 2016 survey documents the region's characteristic topography, where the land rises from the river flats toward higher elevations in the south, reflecting the transition from riparian valleys to the rugged interior mountains within the national park boundaries. The map provides a clear record of the area's natural drainage before further environmental changes or shifts in preservation status.
