About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park and the adjacent Gates of the Arctic Wilderness dominate this remote North Slope landscape as surveyed in the late 1970s. The terrain is defined by massive formations like Hatbox Mesa and peaks such as Fortress Mountain and Castle Mountain, which rise above the complex network of Arctic drainages. This environment is shaped by the flow of the Ayiyak River, Kiruktagiak River, and the headwaters of the Chandler River. While human infrastructure is nearly absent, the presence of a Winter Trail indicates the seasonal routes used for travel across this high-latitude wilderness. Smaller landmarks such as May Lake and the distinctive Horseshoe Mountain provide essential orientation points for those navigating the Canoe Hills region.
