2016 Map of Howard Pass A-2 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

The Noatak National Preserve encompasses the southern portion of this landscape, where the headwaters of several drainages begin their course through the Arctic terrain. High elevation points like Isikut Mtn and the Howard Hills define the northern horizon, framing the important geographic notch of Howard Pass. This pass serves as a natural corridor through the mountains, a critical route for movement across the North Slope. Water is a constant presence in this high-latitude environment, with the Etteluk River flowing through the northwest and the winding paths of Flora Cr and Rough Mountain Creek cutting through the valleys. Smaller bodies of water, including Akuliak Lake and Nigtun Lake, dot the tundra, reflecting the complex hydrology of this preserved wilderness during the early twenty-first century.
