1971 Map of Sagavanirktok C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Sagavanirktok River dominates this Arctic landscape, its braided channels and gravel bars carving a wide path through the North Slope tundra. Mapped during the early 1970s, this survey documents the critical infrastructure of the Alaskan oil boom, most notably the route of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline running parallel to the river. This industrial corridor is further marked by the Susie Oil Well and a nearby Landing Strip, illustrating the isolated, air-dependent nature of resource extraction in this environment.
