2015 Map of Misheguk Mountain C-4 SW

About this map

The southern portion of this landscape is protected within the Noatak National Preserve, a designation that shapes the character of the central Brooks Range foothills. The terrain is defined by the high prominence of Tupik Mtn, which serves as a significant drainage divide for several watercourses. Several primary waterways originate or pass through this area, including the Utukok River to the east and the headwaters of Iligluruk Cr in the northwest. To the south, Nunavikak Cr and Cairn Cr draw from the high slopes, while Tupik Cr cuts through the central region. This map illustrates the undeveloped Arctic wilderness as it was documented in the early 21st century, showing the intricate contouring of the ridges and the network of drainages that define the North Slope's interior.
