2015 Map of Misheguk Mountain C-5 SW

About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the southern portion of this Arctic landscape, where the terrain is defined by complex contour elevations and the presence of Spike Creek. This remote section of the De Long Mountains reflects the pristine wilderness of the North Slope at the beginning of the twenty-first century, showing a land almost entirely devoid of human infrastructure. The survey focuses on the natural drainage patterns and the transition between high mountain ridges and the watercourses that carve through them. For researchers, this map provides a precise record of the hydrography and topography of the t11s r42w and t11s r43w township divisions within a protected national wilderness area.
