2018 Map of Demarcation Point D-3 SW

About this map

The Sikrelurak River and Angun River flow through this remote section of the North Slope, revealing a landscape defined by arctic hydrology and the complex drainage patterns of the Alaskan tundra. This 2018 survey provides a clear view of the winding riverbeds and extensive wetland systems that characterize the region before they reach the Beaufort Sea. The braided channels of the Kongakut River are visible in the southeastern corner, illustrating the dynamic nature of these northern waterways. Without settlements or roads, the map focuses on the natural topography and the Public Land Survey System grid, including townships t6n r38e and t5n r38e. It serves as a vital record of the untouched wilderness within the Demarcation Point quadrangle, useful for environmental researchers and those studying the preservation of these critical watersheds.
