2015 Map of Baird Mountains A-4 NW

About this map

The Omar River and Squirrel River dominate this Alaskan landscape in the Northwest Arctic Borough, where a complex network of seasonal waterways and glacial drainage patterns define the terrain. The northern reaches of the map are marked by the broad, meandering path of the Omar River, while the southern portion is characterized by the confluence of Kagbooc Creek and the larger Squirrel River. These water systems create a mosaic of wetlands and small lakes that are characteristic of the region's arctic lowlands. Towards the eastern edge, Timber Creek flows through a series of subtle topographic elevations. This map captures a remote wilderness area without established roads or settlements, reflecting the vast, untouched nature of the Alaskan interior at the start of the twenty-first century.
