2016 Map of Howard Pass B-1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

The Nigu River corridor defines the geography of this remote Arctic interior, carving a wide valley through the high tundra of the North Slope. This 2016 survey captures the natural drainage patterns where the Etivluk River and Tukuto Cr. converge in an area of immense topographical contrast. Elevated landmarks such as Nigu Bluff and the Nigu Hills provide the primary orientation points in a landscape devoid of permanent human structures or roads. The presence of Lake Betty tucked into the western portion of the quadrangle highlights the complex lacustrine environment typical of this permafrost-underlain terrain, offering a specialized look at the hydrography of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska.
