1955 Map of Meade River B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Atkasuk, also identified as Meade River, serves as the primary focal point of this mid-century survey of the Arctic coastal plain. Located within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, the landscape is defined by an intricate network of lakes and meandering waterways including the Nigisaktukvik River and the Usuktuk River. The settlement is linked to the surrounding wilderness by a series of Tractor Trails that stretch across the tundra, indicating the importance of overland transport in an era before developed road infrastructure.
