About this map

Colville River dominates this Arctic landscape, carving a wide path through the North Slope as it flows eastward. This specific stretch of the drainage reveals the intricate braided nature of the channel and the broad, low-lying gravel bars that characterize the region's major waterways. To the south, the Ipnavik River converges with the main stem, creating a complex network of smaller seasonal channels and wetlands that define the local hydrology. The surrounding terrain is organized by the Public Land Survey System, with grid lines for t5s r20w, t5s r19w, t6s r20w, and t6s r19w providing structural points of reference across an otherwise roadless and uninhabited territory. This map serves as a primary record of the shifting river morphologies and elevation contours of the Brooks Range foothills before further environmental change.
