2018 Map of Mount Michelson C-2 NE

About this map

Mt Weller stands as a prominent geographic anchor in this remote Arctic landscape within the North Slope Borough. The terrain transitions from the high elevations of the southern peaks down into the Itkilyariak Valley, where a complex network of seasonal waterways defines the drainage patterns of the region. These streams, including Marsh Cr, Carter Cr, and Itkilyariak Cr, navigate the coastal plain toward the Beaufort Sea. The cartography reveals a wilderness largely untouched by permanent settlement or infrastructure, emphasizing the natural hydrography and elevation contours. Tracing the path of Weller Cr through the southern foothills provides insight into the rugged glacial and fluvial processes that continue to shape this portion of the Alaska North Slope.
