About this map

Kiliguwa River carves a winding path through this expansive section of the North Slope, serving as the dominant hydrological feature in a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes. The waterway enters from the east and snakes westward across the township lines of t5s r28w and t6s r28w, where the terrain rises steeply from the riverbanks. The southern portion of the quadrangle is marked by the confluence of Jubilee Cr and the larger river, a point where the local topography levels out slightly before ascending into the higher ridges to the south and west. This 2015 survey provides a contemporary look at the undeveloped wilderness of the North Slope Borough, where the absence of roads or permanent structures highlights the isolation of this Arctic environment. The map captures the intricate drainage patterns and contour shifts that dictate the movement of seasonal meltwater through these remote valleys.
