Noatak National Preserve and the southern edge of the National Petroleum Reserve - Alaska meet in this high-latitude Alaskan landscape. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and drainage patterns of remote waterways including Story Cr in the northwest and Safari Cr in the northeast. This 2020 survey illustrates the transition between these two massive federal land designations, where the preserved wilderness of the Noatak basin abuts the designated petroleum reserve. The map detail focuses on the complex topography and hydrological network of the North Slope, capturing the pristine drainage systems of the Arctic interior before they join larger river systems.
