2016 Map of Ikpikpuk River B-3 NE

About this map

Watermelon Lake sits near the center of this terrain, a prominent landmark in the vast, unpopulated expanse of the North Slope. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Fry Cr, which drains the tundra through a complex series of elevation contours. This 2016 survey provides a precise view of the hydrography and public land survey boundaries, including t1n r10w, before any modern infrastructure touched this particular section of the Arctic wilderness. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the isolated character of the Ikpikpuk River basin, where only geographical features and township lines mark the map.
