2014 Map of De Long Mountains A-5 SW

About this map

The Singoalik River meanders across the southern landscape of this arctic wilderness, marking a significant hydrologic feature in a region defined by its austere topography. The map illustrates the administrative transition between the North Slope Borough and the Northwest Arctic Borough, a boundary that bisects the southern tier of the quadrangle. This 2014 survey documents the untouched terrain within the De Long Mountains, showing the complex drainage patterns and elevation contours that dictate the seasonal flow of water toward the coast. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the remote character of this high-latitude environment, where the land is primarily governed by township and range divisions such as t31n r27w and t32n r27w.
