1972 Map of Arctic A-3

About this map

Arctic Village serves as the primary human settlement in this remote landscape, situated along the East Fork Chandalar River. The settlement is supported by a Landing Strip and proximity to local resources like a Gravel Pit, while the surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of lakes and seasonal waterways. A Winter Trail provides ground access across the tundra, navigating between Kornui Lake and the Christian River. The map highlights the intersection of Indigenous land use and federal conservation, with the entire area contained within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. High elevations such as Coal Mountain and Shark Edge Mountain overlook the broad river valleys of the Junjik River and its numerous tributaries, including Tritt Creek and Deadman Creek. Notable local landmarks like the Cems and a Po near the village offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing families in the Brooks Range.
