1983 Map of Arctic C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Continental Divide cuts diagonally through this high-latitude terrain, marking a fundamental geological boundary within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Based on 1974 photography, this topographic record reflects a landscape defined by extreme elevation and drainage patterns rather than human habitation. Glacial runoff feeds into named watercourses like Cane Creek and Flatrock Creek, which navigate the complex contours of the North Slope. The absence of roads or settlements underscores the protected status and isolation of this interior wilderness during the late twentieth century. For researchers or conservation historians, the document provides precise data on mountain peaks and the structural spine of the Brooks Range as it existed before contemporary climate shifts influenced sub-arctic hydrology.
