About this map

Naval Petroleum Reserve No 4 dominates the landscape of this mid-century survey, reflecting the era's focus on Arctic resource exploration. The map highlights the Meade Test Well No 1, a significant marker of early oil prospecting in the region. To the north, the Chukchi Sea coastline is intricately detailed with features like Pt Franklin, the Seahorse Islands, and the expansive Peard Bay. The hydrographic network is dense, defined by the winding course of the Meade River and its numerous tributaries, including the Inaru River and Okpiksak River.
