2020 Map of Ikpikpuk River C-5 NW

About this map

The Oumalik River winds through the high Arctic tundra of Alaska's North Slope, carving a serpentine path through a landscape defined by permafrost-driven topography. This portion of the northern wilderness is characterized by numerous small thermokarst lakes and patterned ground, visible through the intricate contour intervals and hydrographic data. The map reveals the expansive nature of the Arctic coastal plain, where the lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure highlights the isolation of this region. The Oumalik River serves as the primary drainage feature, reflecting the seasonal flow patterns common in this environment. Surveyed under the Public Land Survey System, the area is partitioned into townships including t5n r16w and t4n r17w, providing a structured grid over an otherwise organic and fluid northern terrain.
