1983 Map of Mt. Michelson A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Franklin Mountains dominate this 1983 survey of the Alaska North Slope, providing a detailed record of the Brooks Range interior before the turn of the 21st century. This land is primarily defined by the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Arctic Wildlife Refuge Wilderness, representing an environment where no roads or trails were recorded at the time of editing. Waterways serve as the primary landmarks in this unsurveyed territory, with the Canning River and the Hulahula River framing the high elevation terrain. Smaller tributaries such as Carnivore Creek, Katuk Creek, and West Patuk Creek carve through the mountain passes, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Arctic watershed. The mapping reflects data from aerial photography taken in 1972, providing a precise look at the glaciated peaks and river valleys of this protected wilderness area.
