1984 Map of Ikpikpuk River A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Colville River and its confluence with the Killik River dominate the southern landscape of this Arctic terrain, situated entirely within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. This 1984 edition, based on earlier photogrammetric surveys, documents the transition from the braided river plains to the higher elevations of Kimikpak Ridge. The drainage patterns of Maybe Creek and Weasel Creek in the north illustrate the intricate water systems that define the North Slope's summer geography. A lone Tractor Trail cuts across the central section, marking a rare sign of human passage in a region characterized by its expansive bluffs, such as Starfish Bluff and Puivik Bluff. The map reflects a period of intensive geological study and land management by the Bureau of Land Management and the USGS during the mid-1980s.
