2015 Map of Ikpikpuk River C-2 SE

About this map

Wolf Cr meanders through the southeastern portion of this remote North Slope landscape, providing one of the few named navigational landmarks in a region defined by subtle topographic shifts. The terrain is marked by the Public Land Survey System divisions of t3n r8w, t3n r7w, t2n r8w, and t2n r7w, illustrating the geometric grid overlaid upon the arctic coastal plain. This 2015 survey reflects a wilderness largely devoid of permanent human infrastructure, where the natural hydrology and elevation gradients dictate the character of the environment. The detailed contour lines reveal a complex network of small lakes and seasonal drainages typical of this high-latitude watershed, capturing the area just as it was documented in the early 21st century.
