Kucheak Cr meanders across this Arctic landscape in the North Slope Borough, carving a winding path through a complex network of thaw lakes and wetlands. The drainage pattern shown here is characteristic of the Alaskan coastal plain, where permafrost influences the orientation and shape of the numerous unnamed water bodies. This 2014 survey reveals a region defined almost entirely by its hydrography, with the creek serving as the primary named geographic marker. The map provides a precise view of the Public Land Survey System grid, including boundaries for t14n r24w, t15n r24w, and t13n r23w, which help orient researchers in this expansive, undeveloped wilderness north of the Brooks Range.
