2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains D-1 SE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The North Slope terrain near the Philip Smith Mountains D-1 SE quadrangle is characterized by a high-altitude landscape defined by steep elevation changes and complex drainage patterns. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey utilizes data from the National Elevation Dataset and National Hydrography Dataset to illustrate a region without established road networks or permanent settlements. The map highlights the Public Land Survey System divisions, including T6s R20e, T7s R21e, and T8s R21e, which serve as the primary geographical identifiers for this remote stretch of Alaska. The absence of named human landmarks emphasizes the isolation of this mountain environment, where the contour lines reveal the sharp relief of unnamed peaks and the valleys of the North Slope Borough.
