2014 Map of Meade River C-5 NE

About this map

Lake Itinik and Lake Tuvak dominate this North Slope landscape, illustrating the intricate hydrography of the Alaskan arctic coastal plain. This 2014 survey captures a terrain defined by thermokarst activity, where vast, shallow lakes are linked by seasonal drainages like Walik Cr. The presence of the Kugrua River in the southwestern corner highlights the connectivity of these inland waters to larger fluvial systems. The map preserves the exact boundaries of the Public Land Survey System, specifically across t16n r26w and t15n r26w, providing a precise geometric framework over a naturally fluid environment. This data, sourced from agencies like the U.S. Geological Survey and the Alaska Department of Transportation, reflects the modern geospatial mapping of one of the continent's most remote regions.
