2020 Map of Meade River A-2 NW

About this map

Meade River meanders across this Arctic landscape, defining a complex network of thaw lakes and braided channels. This part of the North Slope reflects a primitive drainage system where the river dictates the topography, carving through the tundra of the t10n r21w and t10n r20w townships. The absence of human-made infrastructure emphasizes the isolation of this region, where natural features like Agutiroak Cr represent the only landmarks in a vast expanse of wetlands. Geographers and researchers can study the intricate patterns of water movement and permafrost-influenced landforms characteristic of the Alaskan coastal plain.
