2016 Map of Killik River C-2 NE

About this map

Killik River serves as the dominant geographical artery through this North Slope landscape, cutting a braided path through the surveyed sections of t9s r8w and t8s r7w. The hydrography of the river valley is complex, characterized by numerous small oxbows and marshy wetlands that suggest a highly dynamic fluvial environment within the Arctic drainage. These waters wind between high-elevation ridges, with contour intervals revealing steep climbs into the neighboring townships of t8s r8w and t9s r7w. This 2016 survey, grounded in data from the National Hydrography Dataset and National Elevation Dataset, provides a technical baseline of a remote river corridor before the impacts of shifting permafrost and northern climate changes further alter the drainage patterns and shoreline morphology of this wilderness region.
