2018 Map of Mount Michelson C-5 SW

About this map

Kavik River meanders through the northeastern corner of this remote North Slope landscape, carving a path through an area defined by its vast public land survey system. This 2018 survey detail shows a largely untouched arctic wilderness, organized by the section lines of T3n R21e, T3n R22e, T2n R21e, and T2n R22e. The absence of roads, settlements, or structures emphasizes the isolation of this portion of the Alaskan tundra. For researchers, the map serves as a precise modern baseline for the drainage patterns and topographic contours that characterize this high-latitude environment before further environmental or industrial changes take hold.
