2017 Map of Beechey Point A-4 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Sakomonyak River meanders across the northwestern corner of this remote North Slope landscape, part of a complex network of wetlands and tundra pools. The map documents a portion of the Arctic coastal plain defined by the slow movement of water through the Kuparuk River system, which appears in the southeastern quadrant. This area, divided by the township lines of t10n r11e and t9n r12e, is characterized by hundreds of small, unnamed thaw lakes and ponds typical of the permafrost environment. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of the terrain, where the dominant features are the natural drainage patterns of the rivers flowing toward the Arctic Ocean.
