About this map

The Sagavanirktok River dominates the eastern portion of this map, its braided channels and gravel bars creating a complex hydrological pattern across the North Slope. Running parallel to this vital waterway are two of the most significant pieces of Alaskan infrastructure: the Alaska Pipeline and the Dalton Highway. This corridor represents the narrow thread of industrial activity and transportation that connects the interior to the northern coast. The surrounding terrain is a mosaic of small lakes and wetlands, typical of the Arctic coastal plain, where the lack of vertical relief and the presence of permafrost dictate the flow of water and the placement of human structures. The map provides a precise record of these features within the survey boundaries of t55s r14e and t6s r14e, showing the proximity of the highway to the pipeline as they navigate the river valley.
