1984 Map of Lookout Ridge D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska dominates this landscape on the North Slope, revealing a region defined by its isolation and specialized land management. The winding Meade River snakes through the northeastern and southeastern corners of the quadrangle, serving as the primary drainage for the surrounding tundra. Human presence is limited to an extensive Tractor Trail system that branches across the terrain, indicating the specific transport methods required for Arctic surveying and exploration. A single named high point, Rufus, stands as a landmark in the northwestern quadrant. Mapped in the early 1970s and edited in the 1980s, the map provides a look at the vast, unsurveyed meridians of the Umiat region before modern infrastructure reached deep into the reserve.
