2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains D-4 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Toolik River dominates the drainage patterns across this expanse of the North Slope, appearing as a meandering blue thread against the high-elevation contours of the Philip Smith Mountains. The terrain is characterized by complex hydrography and wetland systems, meticulously documented through datasets spanning from the late 1970s to 2015. Public Land Survey System grids, including t55s r12e and t6s r12e, provide a structural framework for navigating this remote interior landscape. The lack of named human settlements or road networks underscores the wilderness character of the region during this 2017 survey, where the natural elevation and water systems remain the primary geographic markers for researchers and surveyors.
