USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The Sagavanirktok River snakes northward through this North Slope landscape, serving as a primary corridor for early industrial development in the Alaskan arctic. The map captures a critical moment of transformation as The Trans-Alaska Pipeline (under construction) and a corresponding Winter Road (under construction) are plotted across the tundra. These massive infrastructure projects parallel the river system, signaling the shift from a remote wilderness to an energy-producing frontier.
