2023 Map of Demarcation Point A-1 SW

About this map

British Mountains define the high terrain of this portion of the North Slope, where the land remains a protected wilderness within the Mollie Beattie Wilderness. This 2023 survey documents a landscape dominated by natural drainages and steep topography, largely contained within the broader boundaries of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The map traces the paths of Joe Creek and Aspen Creek as they cut through the range, illustrating the fundamental hydrological patterns of the far north. With no roads or permanent human settlements indicated, the map focuses on the raw physical geography and the administrative boundaries of these massive conservation areas. It serves as a modern record of one of the most intact ecological regions in North America, where the lack of development highlights the enduring character of the Alaskan interior.
