2018 Map of Mount Michelson A-2 SW

About this map

The Franklin Mountains dominate this high-latitude terrain within the North Slope Borough, where the peaks descend into the braided corridor of the Canning River. This 2018 survey reflects a landscape defined by extreme topography and the natural movement of Arctic waters. The river, serving as a primary drainage for the surrounding slopes, exhibits the complex shifting channels characteristic of this remote wilderness. The absence of roads or established settlements on this sheet highlights the preservation of this region as a pristine environment where the land is primarily organized by the Public Land Survey System, including sections within t4s r29e, t4s r30e, t5s r29e, and t5s r30e.
