Ikpikpuk River and its meandering tributaries dominate this section of the North Slope, revealing a landscape defined by complex hydrologic patterns. The slow-moving waters of the Kigalik River and Maybe Creek wind through the tundra, creating a network of oxbows and small ponds typical of this arctic region. Rising above the surrounding lowlands, Howard Hill provides a distinct topographic landmark in an area otherwise characterized by water-saturated terrain and the small drainages of Kay Cr and September Cr. This 2016 survey documents the intricate natural boundaries and public land survey divisions, including portions of t1s r11w and t2s r12w, capturing the remote character of Alaska's northern wilderness before any significant human development or permanent infrastructure.
