2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains A-1 NE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Wind River meanders through this remote portion of the North Slope, Alaska, dominating the western half of the terrain as it flows northward between high ridgelines. The landscape is defined by its extreme isolation and severe relief, with the river's broad, braided path providing the only break in the surrounding peaks. This 2017 survey details the Public Land Survey System grid across two townships, including t14s r21e and t15s r21e, illustrating how the waterway dictates the accessibility of these interior reaches. The map captures the undisturbed hydrography of the Brooks Range foothills, where the absence of roads or settlements emphasizes the raw, natural state of the Arctic drainage system.
