2016 Map of Misheguk Mountain D-3 SW

About this map

Driftwood Creek carves a path through the southern reaches of this landscape in the North Slope Borough, where the terrain transitions into complex high-elevation landforms. Located within the Misheguk Mountain quadrangle, the area is defined by its dramatic relief and the headwaters of remote drainages such as Amo Cr, which flows through the northern sections of the survey. The mapping follows the standard Township and Range grid, covering portions of t7s r37w, t8s r37w, and surrounding boundaries. This region represents a pristine example of the Arctic slope's interior, where drainage patterns are dictated by the underlying structural geology rather than human development. The absence of permanent structures or roads underscores the wilderness character of these highlands near the Brooks Range during the early twenty-first century.
