2015 Map of Misheguk Mountain A-3 SW

About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the majority of this landscape in the western Arctic, where high-latitude drainage systems define the movement of water across the tundra. The Kaluktavik River and Analak Cr flow through the northwest, while the winding Imikneyak Cr dominates the central and eastern sections, carving paths through the varied elevations. In the south, the Isacheluk Mountains rise sharply, providing a significant geological boundary that influences the local watershed. This 2015 survey documents a region defined by its lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure, illustrating the pristine and untouched character of the Alaskan wilderness. The map captures a moment in the modern management of these federal lands, detailing the topographical contours and remote hydrological features that remain critical for scientific study and backcountry navigation in this part of the Brooks Range foothills.
