2015 Map of Howard Pass D-5 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

The Colville River flows across the northern reaches of this Arctic landscape, marking a significant drainage path in the remote Howard Pass region. This topographical study captures the complex hydrological network where the Nuka River and the meandering Mitten Creek converge toward the main river valley. The terrain is defined by high-elevation ridges and deep-cut stream beds typical of the North Slope, illustrating the natural watercourses that have shaped the land long before human infrastructure reached this corner of Alaska. The map provides a detailed look at the township and range divisions, including t5s r30w and t6s r29w, which delineate the vast, uninhabited wilderness. This record is essential for understanding the geomorphology of the Brooks Range foothills and tracing the paths of Arctic waterways during the early 21st century.
