2016 Map of Chandler Lake A-5 NW

About this map

Gates Of The Arctic National Park encompasses this northern landscape, dominated by high elevations and Arctic watersheds. The eastern edge of the map features the expanse of Chandler Lake, from which the northward-flowing Chandler River originates. This high-altitude drainage system is further defined by tributaries such as Iklauyaurak Cr and Iklauyak Cr, which carve through the mountainous terrain. The map depicts a wilderness area defined by its hydrology and topographic relief, showing the relationship between the high lakes and the river systems that drain toward the Arctic coast. The survey captures the region's character through precise contouring and the identification of these major water bodies within the protected national park boundaries.
