1984 Map of Misheguk Mountain C-5

About this map

The National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska meets the Noatak National Preserve in this mid-1980s look at the remote Brooks Range. This landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the arctic coastal plain drainage and the high alpine ridges of the north. To the north, Kokolik Lake and the meandering Iligluruk Creek dominate a terrain of tundra and wetlands. Moving south, the topography rises sharply into the high country of Sulungatak Ridge and Ilingnorak Ridge. The map documents federal boundaries established by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980, including the Noatak Wilderness. Named watercourses like Spike Creek and Nunaviksak Creek cut through the formidable Inaccessible Ridge, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped this roadless interior for millennia.
