The Canning River flows through this remote Arctic landscape, marking the western boundary of an expansive wilderness within the North Slope Borough. This 2018 survey documents the intricate braided channels and riverine wetlands that characterize the valley floor, set against a backdrop of gradual topographic rises indicated by ten-foot contour intervals. This specific map covers portions of the Public Land Survey System including townships t6n r23e, t6n r24e, t5n r23e, and t5n r24e. The area is defined by its natural water patterns and lack of human infrastructure, offering a clear record of the undisturbed hydrology and shoreline of the river as it appeared in the early twenty-first century.
