The Niguanak River and Sikrelurak River wind through this remote coastal plain of the North Slope, revealing a landscape defined by expansive wetlands and intricate hydrography. This 2018 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the braided paths of the Angun River and its tributaries as they traverse the flat tundra towards the Beaufort Sea. The map's detail on surface water patterns and elevation contours offers a precise record of the seasonal drainage systems in this part of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Without roads or permanent settlements, the terrain is structured only by its natural watercourses and the Public Land Survey System grid, including segments of t6n r36e and t5n r37e. This record is essential for understanding the shifting hydrology and environmental character of one of the most untouched regions in Alaska.
