The Asikpak River meanders across this northern landscape, defining the hydrology of the remote Northwest Arctic during this 2014 U.S. Geological Survey study. The terrain is dominated by the rising elevations of the Kitiram Ipitanga Hills, which provide a stark topographic contrast to the surrounding drainage basins. Smaller waterways like Tulukak Cr feed into the larger river systems, while the Kivalina River touches the southeastern reaches of the quadrangle. This map primarily serves to document the natural geography and watercourses in an area without permanent human settlements or infrastructure, focused instead on the raw elevation data and water flow patterns of the Alaskan arctic.
