1990 Map of Christian B-2

About this map

Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge meet in this 1990 provisional survey, capturing a remote landscape where the Brooks Range foothills descend into the expansive Yukon Flats. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts, anchored by Burnt Mountain 2684 and the high point at South 2167. Water systems dominate the drainage patterns, with the winding course of Thluichohnjik Creek and Christian Creek cutting through the northern reaches, while the southern portion of the quadrangle opens into a complex of wetlands and water bodies such as Kwiitevunkud Lake. This map represents the area as it was formally delineated following the 1980 Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, reflecting a period of refined federal land management and conservation mapping in the Alaskan interior.
