2016 Map of Hughes C-3 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this high-latitude terrain, marking a significant hydrologic boundary within the Gates of the Arctic National Preserve. This 2016 survey captures the intersection of the Northwest Arctic Borough and the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, a region defined by its isolation and the steep rise of the Norutak Hills. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System grid across townships such as t15n r20e and t16n r21e, illustrating how this vast northern landscape is administratively organized despite the absence of permanent human settlements or roads. Researchers can trace the fine elevation contours of the hills and the scattered wetlands that dominate the lower elevations, offering a clear record of the subarctic environment in the early 21st century.
