The Noatak National Preserve encompasses most of this landscape, where the Noatak River and Cutler River wind through a complex network of glacial and alluvial terrain. This 2015 survey reveals an untouched Arctic wilderness characterized by a sophisticated drainage system including Kuluich Cr, Natmotirak Cr, and Kunyanak Cr. The lack of human settlements or road infrastructure underscores the area's role as a protected ecological corridor. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, with the rivers cutting deep paths through the interior of the Northwest Arctic Borough. Researchers can trace the exact hydrology and natural boundaries within the Public Land Survey System grids, including t28n r2e and t28n r3e.
