2014 Map of Point Hope A-1 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

Sakolik Mountain rises as the dominant landform in this remote Arctic landscape, anchoring the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. The Kukpuk River defines the physical geography here, its winding course carving deep, serpentine meanders through the coastal tundra. The river's path is characterized by sharp oxbow bends and steep bank incisions, reflecting a complex hydrologic history of seasonal runoff and shifts in the permafrost-laden terrain. Mapping of this area relies heavily on township and range boundaries such as t33n r28w and t32n r28w, which provide the only structural grid for navigation in a region devoid of permanent settlements, roads, or named man-made structures. The landscape remains an untouched expanse of the North Slope, where the drainage patterns of the Kukpuk River provide the primary orientation for those traversing the Alaskan wilderness.
