2020 Map of Meade River C-3 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2020

About this map

Meade River defines the eastern portion of this Arctic landscape, where the meandering waterway carves through a terrain densely pockmarked by thaw lakes and interconnected wetlands. The hydrological network is further characterized by the Nigisaktuvik River, which winds through the southern reaches of the quadrangle before its confluence. In the northern sections, the smaller Kucheak Cr drains the marshy tundra. This map illustrates the typical geomorphology of the North Slope, where seasonal drainage patterns and permafrost-influenced basins create a complex, shifting aquatic environment. The lack of infrastructure or permanent settlements underscores the isolation of this region within the t14n r22w and surrounding township boundaries, preserving a snapshot of the Alaskan wilderness as it existed in 2020.
