2016 Map of Chandler Lake D-3 NE

About this map

Ahaliorak Lake sits at the heart of this high-latitude terrain, where the hydrography of the North Slope is defined by the northward flow of the Anaktuvuk River and the meandering path of the Tuluga River. This 2016 survey, produced with data from the Alaska Dept. of Transportation and the BLM, captures a landscape of intense topographic relief where drainage patterns dictate the movement of water across the North Slope Borough. The lack of named settlements or roads reflects the isolation of the Arctic wilderness, emphasizing the natural corridors of the river valleys and the seasonal character of the wetlands documented by the FWS. The map serves as a primary record of the physical geography within the t5s r3e and t6s r4e townships, focusing on the unpopulated river basins of the far north.
