2015 Map of Noatak B-1 SW

About this map

Noatak National Preserve encompasses the heart of this landscape in the Northwest Arctic Borough, where high-latitude drainage systems define the topography. The Agashashok River flows across the northern reaches, while smaller tributaries like Hugo Cr and Knapp Cr carve through the southern sections. This 2015 study by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the unpopulated wilderness and public land survey boundaries, including t23n r17w and t22n r16w, during a period of modern mapping that utilized SPOT imagery and national elevation datasets. The map provides a precise record of the hydrological network and elevation contours within this protected Alaskan interior, illustrating the relationship between the major river valley and its surrounding high-country creeks.
