1990 Map of Coleen B-3

About this map

Rabbit Mountain stands as the primary geographic landmark in this remote northern interior of the Brooks Range foothills. Drawn from aerial photography taken in 1978, the landscape shows the high-latitude drainage systems of Fish Creek as it winds through a terrain defined by stark topographic contours. The entire quadrangle is encompassed within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a designation formally established just after the aerial survey by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The map captures a moment of transition for this wilderness area, documenting its elevation and watercourses as they were officially organized under federal management in the late 20th century.
