2014 Map of Point Hope C-1 NE

About this map

Nilik River meanders through this portion of the North Slope, defining a landscape dominated by the intricate hydrology of the Alaska tundra. The drainage patterns of Sakvelak Cr and Oligavik Cr illustrate the complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways that characterize the region. In the southwestern corner, Kekiktalik Lake serves as a prominent landmark within this open expanse. The presence of South Aluk Hill provides one of the few significant topographic elevations on the sheet, offering a distinct contrast to the surrounding low-lying plains. This 2014 survey captures the area within the North Slope Borough, documented by the U.S. Geological Survey at a time when mapping of remote Alaskan terrain reached new levels of digital precision through the National Geospatial Program.
