2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains C-1 SW

About this map

The Wind River carves through this remote landscape in the North Slope Borough, providing a vital waterway for the Brooks Range interior. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the high-altitude terrain where the river’s drainage network meets the ice-carved features of the upper mountains. A prominent landmark is Windy Glacier, situated in the central portion of the quadrangle among steep vertical relief. The map illustrates the complex township and range boundaries including t10s r20e and t11s r20e, which help define these undeveloped tracts of the Alaskan wilderness. For those studying the geography of the Far North, this sheet offers a detailed perspective on the glacial and riverine interactions that shape the Arctic divide before human development or infrastructure altered the drainage basins.
