Wetlands and thaw lakes dominate this portion of the North Slope, where the intricate geography of the Arctic coastal plain is mapped through the Public Land Survey System. The landscape is defined by the intersections of T9n R13e, T8n R13e, T9n R12e, and T8n R12e. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey uses National Hydrography Dataset information to detail the numerous unnamed water bodies and saturated tundra characteristic of this remote borough. The lack of named roads or settlements underscores the isolation of the region, focusing instead on the precise township and range boundaries used for land management and resource mapping in northern Alaska.
