2016 Map of Ikpikpuk River B-4 NE

About this map

The Ikpikpuk River meanders through the expansive Arctic tundra of the North Slope, revealing a complex landscape of hydrologic shifts and permafrost features. This 2016 survey captures the river's winding path across the boundary lines of t2n r13w, t2n r12w, and southward into t1s r13w. The map illustrates a dense network of topographic contours and lake basins characteristic of the region's thaw-lake cycles. These remote townships represent a largely undeveloped section of the Alaskan wilderness where the river serves as the primary geographic corridor. While absent of modern infrastructure or settlements, the detailed hydrography and elevation data provide essential context for understanding the environmental and geological character of this high-latitude terrain.
