About this map

National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska dominates the northern half of this Brooks Range landscape, meeting the boundary of the Noatak National Preserve at a time of significant federal land reclassification. Published shortly after the 1980 Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, the map delineates the Noatak Wilderness as it protects the headwaters and drainage of the Etivluk River. The terrain is defined by high passes and mountain summits, including Inyorurak Pass and the prominent Koiyaktot Mountain. Unlike more settled regions, the geography here is exclusively natural, marked by glacial features like Etivlik Lake and Kikitaliorak Lake. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the era's focus on conservation and scientific study within the North Slope Borough.
