2014 Map of Meade River A-5 SE

About this map

Avalitkok Cr meanders through this remote portion of the North Slope, carving a subtle path through the Arctic coastal plain. The landscape is defined by its low relief and an intricate network of thaw lakes and ponds, characteristic of the permafrost-underlain tundra. This 2014 survey reveals the hydrographic complexity of the region, where drainage patterns like those of Avalitkok Cr are constantly reshaped by seasonal cycles. While devoid of permanent settlements or roads, the map provides a precise record of the Public Land Survey System divisions, including sections within t9n r27w, t9n r26w, t8n r27w, and t8n r26w. This data is essential for understanding land management and natural resource boundaries in the Alaskan wilderness during the early 21st century.
