2015 Map of Howard Pass A-5 NW

About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the vast majority of this landscape, protecting a wilderness characterized by complex hydrography and high-latitude terrain. The southern reaches are defined by the glacial waters of Sidik Lake and the meandering course of the Aniuk River, which snakes through the bottomlands before the elevation rises sharply into the Avingyak Hills to the north. This 2015 survey illustrates the administrative boundary between the North Slope Borough and the Northwest Arctic Borough, a line that cuts across the remote topography. The map detail highlights a transition from low-lying wetlands and river basins to the more prominent relief of the northern hills, offering a clear record of the watershed and jurisdictional limits in this part of the Alaskan interior.
