1955 Map of De Long Mountains A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Kivalina River meanders across this mid-century landscape in the northwestern reaches of the Arctic, revealing a terrain defined by expansive river basins and the high elevations of the Wulik Peaks. The 1950s data, compiled by the Army Map Service, documents a wilderness devoid of roads or permanent settlements at the time of the survey. The northern portion of the sheet captures a segment of the Kukpuk R, while the complex hydrology of oxbow lakes and braided channels along the river valleys illustrates the dynamic nature of this remote environment. These land lines represent unsurveyed and unmarked locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, emphasizing the frontier state of this region during the post-war era.
