1983 Map of Arctic C-4

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Arctic National Wildlife Refuge encompasses the entire topography of this 1983 survey, revealing the high-altitude hydrology of the North Slope. The landscape is defined by the Continental Divide, which snakes through the southern portion of the quadrangle, dictating the flow of glacial runoff. To the north, the Marsh Fork Canning River carves through the mountains, joined by the headwaters of Spring Creek. A primary point of transit through this vertical terrain is Carter Pass, situated at the heart of the refuge. Compiled from 1974 aerial photography, this provisional map provides a precise look at the drainage patterns and peaks of the Brooks Range before modern digital mapping, focusing purely on the natural features of the wilderness.
