2017 Map of Philip Smith Mountains D-5 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

The Kuparuk River flows northward through the eastern edge of this landscape in the Philip Smith Mountains. This interior region of the North Slope is defined by its drainage patterns and high-latitude topography, captured here in a 2017 survey that emphasizes the land's underlying structure through detailed contouring. The map area is organized by the Public Land Survey System grids of T5s R9e, T5s R10e, T6s R9e, and T6s R10e, which provide a formal framework for a territory devoid of permanent settlements or roads. The absence of human-made infrastructure or named landmarks beyond the river highlights the specialized nature of this Arctic environment, serving as a clean baseline for researchers and land managers monitoring this portion of the Alaskan wilderness.
