2013 Map of Meade River D-2 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
The Inaru River meanders across this Arctic coastal plain in the North Slope Borough, carving a complex path through a landscape dominated by thaw lakes and saturated wetlands. This 2013 survey by the U. S. Geological Survey details the intricate hydrography of the region, where the Inaru River serves as the primary drainage feature, winding from the southwest toward the northeast. In the upper portion of the quadrangle, Niklavik Cr flows through similar low-relief terrain, highlighting the delicate drainage patterns typical of the Alaskan tundra. The lack of roads or permanent settlements within these township lines underscores the remote character of this permafrost-underlain environment, defined entirely by its water bodies and seasonal flow.
