The Northwest Arctic landscape of Alaska is defined by its Public Land Survey System divisions, clearly delineated here across the townships of T8n R9w, T8n R8w, T7n R9w, and T7n R8w. This 2014 survey focuses on the topographic contours of the interior, illustrating the high elevations and drainage patterns that characterize the region south of the Selawik River. While the sheet is primarily a study of elevation and natural hydrology, it serves as a modern baseline for understanding the state of this remote arctic terrain, where surveying lines provide the only human-imposed structure upon the land.
