2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains A-5 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Gates of the Arctic National Preserve dominates this remote section of the Brooks Range, where the topography is defined by the steep elevation changes of the North Slope. The northern reach of the quadrangle is marked by the Oolah Valley, a significant drainage corridor through the mountains. This 2017 survey reflects the protected status of the wilderness, showing the intersection of several townships including t14s r9e and t15s r10e. The absence of roads or permanent structures on the map underscores the primitive character of the landscape, preserved for its ecological and geological significance within the national preserve system.
