About this map

Sigrikpak Ridge dominates the central landscape of this North Slope terrain, acting as a drainage divide for several remote waterways. To the northeast, the Kukpuk River winds through the coastal plain, receiving flow from Wolf Cr and Battery Cr. This 2014 survey reveals a complex hydrological network where named features like Phosphorite Cr and Niyiklik Cr carve deep paths through the unpopulated tundra.

The southern portion of the map is defined by the headwaters of Ogotoruk Cr, Kisimilok Cr, and Ugalak Cr, which flow generally southwest. The absence of roads or permanent settlements underscores the isolation of this Arctic environment, documented here through modern topographic standards. The mapping of these specific creeks provides critical data for understanding the watershed patterns and natural boundaries of this section of the Alaska-North Slope Borough.
