2017 Map of Beechey Point A-2 SE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Kadleroshilik River defines the hydrology of this North Slope landscape, meandering through a complex network of thaw lakes and arctic wetlands. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the intricate drainage patterns of the coastal plain within the Public Land Survey System designations of T8n R18e, T9n R18e, T8n R17e, and T9n R17e. The map illustrates the characteristic geomorphology of the region, where countless unnamed water bodies and saturated terrain dominate the surface between the river’s braided channels. This data provides a baseline for understanding the fluid boundaries of the Alaskan tundra, where small elevation changes of just a few feet significantly alter the reach of the Kadleroshilik River and its surrounding marshlands.
