The Kokolik River winds through the northern portion of this Arctic landscape, demonstrating the complex, meandering patterns characteristic of the North Slope coastal plain. This 2014 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reveals a terrain dominated by thermokarst activity, where numerous unnamed thaw lakes and ponds are scattered across the tundra. Pugutak Lake sits near the southern boundary, serving as one of the few named water bodies in this remote region. The map provides a precise look at the township and range lines across this part of the Alaska-North Slope Borough, offering a clear view of the natural drainage systems before they reach the Chukchi Sea.
