Steep mountainous terrain and glacial drainage patterns dominate this high-altitude section of the Brooks Range in the North Slope Borough. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, encompassing portions of T15s R13e, T16s R13e, and T17s R13e alongside their eastern counterparts T15s R14e, T16s R14e, and T17s R14e. Elevation contours at 40-foot intervals reveal deep V-shaped valleys and sharp ridgelines characteristic of the Arctic wilderness. While devoid of named settlements or roads, the map provides a precise topographic record of the drainage basins and summits that have historically challenged travelers and survey crews in this remote interior region.
