About this map

The Ayiyak River meanders across this northern landscape, carving a prominent valley through the high tundra of the North Slope. This 2016 survey highlights the intricate drainage patterns of the region, where the river flows northward alongside the S Fork Ninuluk Creek. The terrain is defined by the Public Land Survey System grid, which segments the vast open territory into townships and ranges such as t7s r4w and t8s r4w. For those studying the hydrography and topography of the Arctic foothills, this map provides a clear view of the natural watercourses and elevation changes that dictate travel and survival in the Alaskan interior.
