1990 Map of Howard Pass A-4
USGS Topo · Published 1990About this map
Feniak Lake and the surrounding high arctic tundra define this 1990 provisional study of the Northwest Arctic Borough. This landscape is dominated by the intricate hydrology of the Noatak National Preserve, where the meandering Noatak River and Aniuk River drain a complex network of wetlands and smaller basins like Sikik Lake and Navashak Lake. Compiled from aerial photography taken in 1978 and 1980, the survey reflects a remote wilderness within the Noatak Wilderness boundaries, characterized by high-elevation peaks and broad glacial valleys. The map documents the natural drainage patterns of Makpik Creek and other unnamed tributaries in an era before significant modern intrusion, providing a baseline for the region's environmental history and hydrography.
