1956 Map of Lookout Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Naval Petroleum Reserve No 4 dominates the central landscape of this mid-century survey, a vast expanse of the North Slope defined by its complex drainage systems and prominent structural ridges. The topography is anchored by the east-west trending Lookout Ridge and Shaningarok Ridge, which dictate the paths of numerous waterways such as the Awuna River and the Meade River. The presence of several Tractor Trails cutting across the tundra suggests the era's early industrial and scientific exploration for oil resources.
