2014 Map of Lookout Ridge D-5 SW

About this map

Township and range lines define the structure of this remote North Slope landscape, where the public land survey system organizes a vast expanse of arctic terrain. The map area is primarily composed of the junction between T6n R28w and T6n R27w in the north, meeting T5n R28w and T5n R27w to the south. In this sparsely labeled region of Alaska, the topographic contours reveal the subtle rise and fall of the Lookout Ridge system, providing a rare high-resolution look at the drainage patterns and elevation changes of the high arctic before modern climate shifts further alter the permafrost-driven geography.
