1986 Map of Killik River B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses the southern half of this interior North Slope terrain, where the Killik River flows northward through a complex network of braided channels and expansive river bars. This 1986 edition reflects a period after the establishment of the Gates of the Arctic Wilderness, documenting a landscape defined by water and elevation rather than human infrastructure. The map records the intersection of the Umiat and Kateel River Meridians, a significant surveying boundary that bisects the central portion of the sheet near Kaikshak Hill. North of the park boundary, the river valley widens to include prominent water bodies like Imiaknikpak Lake and Lake Udriuik. Tributaries such as Silalinigun Creek and Akmalik Creek drain the surrounding highlands, illustrating the hydrological patterns of the Brooks Range foothills before they reach the northern coastal plain.
