2016 Map of Hughes D-6 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

The Kobuk River flows across this northern Alaskan landscape, forming the primary geographic artery through a region defined by its significant water systems and protected wilderness. In the northern portion of the sheet, the Gates of the Arctic National Preserve encompasses a high-elevation interior where the Killak River originates and begins its southward descent through the valley. The map documents a complex network of tributaries, including the Selby River and the smaller Kokumpat Cr, which converge near the broader Kobuk floodplain. This 2016 survey illustrates the pristine hydrology of the Northwest Arctic, where the absence of roads and human settlements highlights a landscape still governed by natural drainage patterns and the seasonal flow of Arctic waterways.
