2013 Map of Harrison Bay A-4 SW

About this map

Judy Creek meanders through this portion of the North Slope, carving a complex path across a landscape defined by an extensive network of thaw lakes and ponds. This survey, compiled from SPOT imagery and National Hydrography Dataset records, illustrates the shifting hydrology of the Arctic coastal plain. The creek's winding course and the surrounding saturated terrain reflect the dynamic environmental conditions of the region within the North Slope Borough. Large unnamed water bodies dominate the central and eastern sections, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography as it existed in the early twenty-first century. The map serves as a primary source for tracking the orientation and scale of these water features relative to the established Public Land Survey System boundaries.
