2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains D-3 SE
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Lupine River winds through the northeast corner of this remote Arctic territory, serving as the primary geographic marker in a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts and sprawling wetlands. This 2017 topographic study highlights the complex hydrological network of the North Slope, where the drainage patterns of the river basin interact with various high-altitude peaks. The map is organized by the Public Land Survey System, including portions of T6s R15e, T7s R15e, and t8s r15e, providing a precise grid for an otherwise trackless wilderness. While the region lacks permanent settlements or road infrastructure, the detailed contour intervals illustrate the extreme verticality of the Philip Smith Mountains, offering critical data for surveyors and researchers studying this specific Alaskan interior drainage.
