About this map

The Sagavanirktok River and Kuparuk River flow northward across this Arctic landscape, draining into the Beaufort Sea during a period of transition for the North Slope. Compiled from 1950s data and updated in the mid-1970s, the map highlights the early infrastructure of the region's energy development, centered around the settlement at Deadhorse and the industrial hub at Prudhoe Bay. A prominent Pumping station sits near the riverbanks, marking the emergence of the trans-Alaska pipeline corridor.
