1971 Map of Sagavanirktok B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Shaviovik River meanders through this portion of the North Slope, revealing a landscape defined by its remote Arctic water systems in the early 1970s. This survey, compiled from 1970 aerial photography, documents the braided channels of the Echooka River and the isolated Cache One Lake before significant industrial infrastructure reached this specific interior quadrangle. A single Drill Hole serves as a lone marker of exploratory activity amidst a terrain primarily characterized by drainages like Kemik Creek and Fin Creek. The mapping reflects a transitional period when the Bureau of Land Management was still predetermining unsurveyed land lines, marking a moment in time when much of the region remained unmarked and wild.
