About this map

The Buckland River meanders across this sub-arctic terrain, defining a landscape shaped by water and elevation within the Northwest Arctic Borough. The river's path is joined by significant tributaries including the W Fork Buckland River, which flows through the southern half of the quadrangle. Smaller drainages like Pack-Sack Cr and Harvey Cr feed into the main channel from the north, illustrating a complex hydrological network. While the area lacks named settlements or developed infrastructure, the detailed topographic lines reveal the undulating drainage basins and low ridges that characterize this part of the Alaskan interior. This survey provides a precise look at the natural geography before any major modern land use changes, serving as a primary reference for the physical character of the region's river systems.
