2017 Map of Chandalar C-6 NE

About this map

The Alaska Pipeline and the Dalton Highway run parallel through this remote Arctic corridor, serving as the primary industrial arteries of the region. This survey captures the critical infrastructure necessary for energy transport and overland access to the North Slope, etched against the steep topography of the Brooks Range. The valley floor is defined by the Dietrich River, which flows south toward its confluence with the Bettles River near the base of Dillon Mtn. To the north, Snowden Cr drains the high elevations of the surrounding mountains. The map illustrates the narrow passage where engineering and environment meet, highlighting the massive scale of the pipeline's path across the drainage basins of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
