2020 Map of Meade River C-4 NE

About this map

The Inaru River winds across this Arctic landscape, creating a complex network of meanders and oxbow lakes within the North Slope's permafrost-dominated terrain. This 2020 topographic study of the Meade River C-4 NE quadrangle reveals a land almost entirely defined by water, where thermokarst lakes and ponded wetlands dominate the surface between the river's shifting channels. The absence of settlements or named landmarks highlights the extremity of this environment, where the shifting hydrology of the Inaru River remains the primary geographical feature across the township lines of T16N R24W and T15N R23W.
