2017 Map of Beechey Point A-5 NE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Sakonowyak River winds through the expansive North Slope landscape in this survey of the Beechey Point area. This environment is characterized by a dense network of thaw lakes and ponds typical of the arctic tundra, with drainage patterns defined by the river's path through townships t10n r10e, t10n r11e, t9n r10e, and t9n r11e. The hydrology of this region reflects the dynamic nature of the permafrost-influenced terrain, where small seasonal waterways and standing water bodies dominate the surface. This map captures the remote character of the borough before any significant industrial or infrastructure development reached this specific quadrangle.
