2015 Map of De Long Mountains A-2 SW

About this map

The Punupkahkroak Mtn upland dominates this section of the De Long Mountains, where industrial infrastructure meets the high arctic landscape of Northwest Arctic Borough. The southeastern corner of the map reveals the operational presence of the Red Dog mine complex, anchored by the Red Dog Airport and the critical transportation corridor of the Red Dog Mine Road. This road follows the drainage of Ikalukrok Creek south, providing a window into the logistics of one of the world's most remote mining operations during the early 21st century. The hydrography is defined by the Wulik River and Red Dog Cr, which carve through the high-elevation terrain. This map serves as a record of modern arctic industrial development, capturing the specific footprint of aviation and haulage routes established to support mineral extraction in the Alaskan wilderness.
