1984 Map of Misheguk Mountain C-1

About this map

Noatak National Preserve and the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska meet in this 1980s landscape, defined by the administrative boundaries established by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The map captures a transition between the protected Noatak Wilderness to the south and the petroleum reserve to the north. Centered on the prominent Nuka Ridge, the area is etched by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Singayoak Creek, Suvaloyuk Creek, and the curiously named Sorepaw Creek.
