1955 Map of Demarcation Point C-3

About this map

The Aichilik River meanders across this northern landscape, marking a transition from the coastal plains into the foothills of the Brooks Range. Captured through aerial photography in 1955, the terrain reveals a complex network of braided waterways and glacial drainages. The Egaksrak River and Ekaluakat River carve prominent paths through the eastern half of the sheet, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. This map is particularly significant for its representation of federal land boundaries, including the Arctic Wildlife Refuge Wilderness and the Aichilik River Wilderness, which were later formalized by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The lack of roads or established trails highlights the enduring character of this unpopulated region, where topographical features like Redwacke Creek serve as the primary landmarks for navigation.
