1955 Map of De Long Mountains D-3
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Kukpuk Creek winds through the northwestern reaches of this 1955 survey of the De Long Mountains, highlighting a landscape defined by sharp drainage patterns and high ridges. The terrain is dominated by the headwaters of Turbid Creek, which flows through the center of the sheet, revealing the natural hydrology of the North Slope. Mapped by the U.S. Army Topographic Command, the contour lines illustrate the significant elevation changes that characterize this sub-arctic environment. Without settlements or roads present during this era, the map serves as a pure record of the natural topography and the intricate network of unnamed tributaries that feed into the larger creek systems of the region.
