1955 Map of Misheguk Mountain A-3

About this map

The Misheguk Mountains dominate this 1955 survey of the Northwest Arctic, revealing a landscape defined by sharp elevation and a complex network of glacial-fed waterways. This remote section of the North Slope Borough shows the branching headwaters of the Kaluktavik River and Katuktavik River, which carve deep valleys through the surrounding peaks. The topography is further shaped by the Imikneyak Mountains and the Kingasivik Mountains, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns of the Imikneyak Creek system. To the south, the Isacheluich Mountains border the drainages of Sisiak Creek and Analak Cr, marking a high-altitude wilderness where no roads or trails were recorded at the time of the field annotation.
