Wolf Creek meanders across this Arctic landscape in the North Slope Borough, carving a serpentine path through a dense network of thermokarst lakes and ponds. This 2015 survey, based on Spot imagery and data from the National Hydrography Dataset, illustrates the complex hydrology of the Alaskan tundra within the Public Land Survey System divisions of t4n r7w, t4n r6w, and t3n r7w. The map reveals a land defined by water, where unnamed pools dominate the terrain between the primary drainage of the creek. Researchers of the National Petroleum Reserve or Arctic geomorphology can observe the precise elevation contours and hydrographic patterns that define this remote section of the Ikpikpuk River basin.
