1955 Map of De Long Mountains D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Igloo Mountain dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, rising as a prominent landform above the surrounding drainage basins. The Kukpowruk River carves a winding path through the western portion of the terrain, fed by several significant tributaries including Turbid Cr and Eagle Creek. This 1955 mapping effort, based on aerial photography and field annotations from the same year, captures the area's hydrology before later industrial or environmental shifts. The convergence of Raven Basin near the southern boundary suggests a complex topographical intersection where mountain slopes transition into lower wetlands and creek beds. To the east, the expansive reach of Surprise Creek and the flow of Tupikchak Creek define the watershed patterns of this remote northern region.
