2016 Map of Misheguk Mountain C-2 NW

About this map

Nuka River meanders through the central and southern reaches of this Northwest Arctic landscape, serving as the primary drainage for the surrounding highlands. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, with the high-country drainage of Storm Cr in the west and Pilly Fork in the northeast feeding the larger river system. This 2016 survey highlights a period of contemporary environmental mapping in the North Slope Borough, where the terrain is largely defined by natural watercourses rather than human infrastructure. The lack of roads or established settlements on this sheet reflects the remote character of the De Long Mountains region, where seasonal water flow and topographic contours are the defining features for navigation and land use study.
