The Inaru River meanders across this Arctic landscape, creating a complex drainage pattern typical of the North Slope's permafrost-underlain terrain. The map highlights a remote section of the borough where the seasonal flow of the river is the primary hydrological feature, cutting through a mosaic of thermokarst lakes and tundra. Surveyed within the Public Land Survey System, the area is defined by the boundaries of t16n r24w, t16n r23w, t15n r24w, and t15n r23w. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the wilderness character of this region during the early 21st century, providing a clear record of the untouched topography before potential shifts in the Arctic environment.
