2017 Map of Howard Pass C-3 SW

About this map

Mt Bupto rises as the dominant landmark in this high-latitude terrain of the North Slope, overlooking a complex system of drainage basins. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Cutaway Cr and Bushy Cr, which thread through various townships including t9s r25w, t10s r24w, and t11s r25w. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the intricate contour lines of the Brooks Range foothills, where the absence of roads or permanent settlements highlights the extreme nature of the Arctic wilderness. For researchers and geographers, the map provides a precise layout of the hydrological patterns and topographic relief of this uninhabited region before any modern industrial or infrastructure shifts might alter the surface.
