1956 Map of Killik River

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Brooks Range dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, its peaks giving rise to a massive drainage system flowing north toward the Arctic. The Killik River serves as the central artery, carving a deep valley past landforms such as Pingaluligit Mountain and the Itkilikruich Ridges. Human presence is nearly absent in this remote territory, marked only by a solitary Cabin along the riverbank, indicating the seasonal or transient nature of life in the interior North Slope.
