2020 Map of Barrow A-4 SE

About this map

Kimouksik Lake and Lake Sungovoak define this Arctic landscape in the North Slope Borough, where the terrain is dominated by a complex network of thaw lakes and wetlands. The map illustrates the specialized hydrology of the region, specifically within the public land survey divisions of t21n r17w and t20n r18w. This 2020 survey documents the precise shapes of these water bodies at a 1:25,000 scale, capturing the intricate shoreline boundaries that are constantly influenced by permafrost dynamics and seasonal shifts. The layout of the township and range lines across the northern tundra provides a framework for understanding land management and natural resource boundaries in this remote section of Alaska.
