1983 Map of Demarcation Point A-3

About this map

Romanzof Mountains topography dominates this 1980s-era study of the remote North Slope, capturing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and high-altitude drainage systems. The map details the protected wilderness areas of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Arctic Wildlife Refuge Wilderness, where no roads or trails are noted, emphasizing the untouched character of the terrain. Principal watercourses such as the Egaksrak River and the Leffingwell Fork carve through the high country, fed by seasonal flows like Drain Creek. This survey provides a precise record of landmarks like Bathtub Ridge and Plug Mountain, offering essential data for those studying the physical geography of the Brooks Range foothills before modern climate shifts altered these high-latitude environments.
