2014 Map of Point Lay B-2 NE
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Kukpowruk River meanders through this section of the Arctic coastal plain, carving a distinct valley through the tundra in the Alaska North Slope Borough. This 2014 survey captures a landscape defined by an intricate network of thaw lakes and wetlands, characteristic of the permafrost-underlain terrain near the Chukchi Sea coast. The mapping of township and range lines, including t2n r44w and t1s r45w, reveals the systematic division of this remote territory under the Public Land Survey System. The absence of roads or permanent settlements underscores the isolation of the river corridor, which remains a vital geographical feature for navigation and subsistence in the northern reaches of Alaska.
