About this map

Kurupa River anchors this 1986 provisional survey of the North Slope, winding through a series of steep, unnamed ridges and valleys in the Alaskan interior. The terrain is marked by intense contouring, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the region's arctic watershed. Smaller tributaries, such as Heather Creek, join the main river course as it flows through the desolate landscape. This map was compiled from 1973 aerial photography but remained largely unverified by field checking at the time of its 1986 editing. The absence of roads, trails, or settlements highlights the isolation of this portion of the borough, where the geography is defined entirely by its hydrological features and the township and range survey lines that divide the wilderness into systematic grids.
