2020 Map of Harrison Bay C-5 SE

About this map

Harrison Bay dominates the northeastern corner of this coastal Arctic landscape, where the Beaufort Sea meets the low-lying wetlands of the North Slope. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of thermokarst lakes and meandering waterways, most notably the Kogru River which winds through the western portion of the sheet. Further inland, Garry Creek drains across the tundra, highlighting the complex drainage patterns characteristic of this permafrost-rich environment. This survey captures a moment in the modern era of the North Slope Borough, illustrating the vast hydrography and the precise Public Land Survey System grid of t15n r3w, t14n r2w, and surrounding townships. The absence of permanent settlements emphasizes the environmental character of this remote coastal region.
