The Arctic landscape of the North Slope is defined here by the headwaters and drainage patterns of Iteriak Creek and Otuk Creek. This 2016 survey captures the austere hydrology of the Killik River basin, where seasonal streams carve through the tundra and upland slopes. The terrain is structured by the Public Land Survey System, with the map covering portions of Township 10 South Range 17 West and surrounding blocks. Unlike many maps of the era, this sheet shows a wilderness devoid of roads or man-made structures, reflecting the extreme isolation of the region north of the Brooks Range. Researchers studying the Arctic watershed or land management boundaries can trace the exact course of these waterways through the high-latitude interior.
