2017 Map of Beechey Point A-4 SW

About this map

The Kuparuk River meanders across this Arctic landscape, its shifting channels and braided waters dominating the central and eastern portions of the terrain. This environment is characterized by a dense network of wetlands and thaw lakes typical of the North Slope, where water bodies are constantly reshaped by seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. The survey provides a precise look at the land division within the Public Land Survey System, specifically detailing the corners and boundaries of T9n R11e, T9n R12e, T8n R11e, and T8n R12e. These township and range designations reflect the systematic grid overlaying the coastal plain, used to manage resource extraction and environmental conservation efforts in the region. The absence of roads or permanent structures emphasizes the specialized, industrial, or scientific nature of activity in this part of Alaska during the early 21st century.
