2014 Map of Noatak C-3 NE

About this map

Kiyak Cr and Kuchak Cr define the high-altitude drainage patterns of this remote Northwest Arctic landscape. Surveyed in the early 21st century, the terrain is characterized by steep elevation changes and a complex system of seasonal and perennial waterways. The map illustrates the hydrological divide between these two primary water bodies and the southern Kuchoruk Cr. The absence of roads or permanent settlements within the t27n r20w and t26n r20w townships reflects the preservation of the natural Arctic environment. Researchers can trace the fine-grained contour intervals that reveal the intricate landforms and watershed boundaries unique to this northern borough, providing a clear record of the untouched topography during this period.
