1990 Map of Ambler River D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Noatak River serves as the central artery through this remote section of the Alaskan Brooks Range, documented here during a 1990 survey based on aerial photography from the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by its administrative and environmental status, split between the Noatak National Preserve and the Noatak Wilderness, while the eastern margin of the map marks the boundary of the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Wilderness. Numerous seasonal waterways such as Atongarak Creek, Douglas Creek, and Kayachurak Creek drain the high terrain into the main river valley. This map is notable for its lack of established roads or permanent settlements, instead focusing on the hydrological network and the precise topographical contours of the Arctic tundra and mountain slopes.
