2015 Map of Misheguk Mountain B-1 NE

About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the southern portion of this landscape, where the Anisak River flows westward along the base of the mountain range. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain defined by high-altitude drainage systems, most notably Setting Sun Cr and Stone Ring Cr, which carve through the northern slopes. Centrally located within the preserve is Burial Lake, a significant water feature situated in a high basin. The map illustrates a transitional environment where the steep elevation contours of the Misheguk Mountain area descend into the broader river valley, reflecting the wilderness character of the North Slope. Researchers will find a precise record of these hydrological patterns and the established boundaries of the federal preserve.
