2020 Map of Meade River A-2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2020

About this map

The Meade River dominates this Arctic landscape, winding through a series of complex oxbows and paleochannels. This 2020 survey illustrates the dynamic nature of the North Slope's fluvial systems, where the main channel and Piksiksak Cr migrate across a flat, water-saturated tundra. The map provides a detailed view of the terrain within several townships, including t9n r21w, t9n r20w, and t8n r21w. These grid divisions highlight the vast, uninhabited stretches of the borough, defined by low-lying wetlands and subtle topographic shifts rather than permanent settlements or infrastructure. The lack of roads or buildings underscores the isolation of this region within the North Slope Borough, where natural drainage patterns and the seasonal flow of the river are the primary geographic features.
