1985 Map of Selawik B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Selawik River meanders across this landscape of the Northwest Arctic, where the environment is defined by intricate hydrological patterns and seasonal wetlands. Published in the mid-1980s based on 1971 aerial photography, the map documents a vast portion of the Selawik National Wildlife Refuge. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of lakes and ponds, typical of the arctic tundra's drainage systems. The Tagagawik River flows through the eastern section, joining the complex waterway system that sustains the region's diverse migratory bird populations and aquatic life. This provisional map captures the area before modern climate shifts further altered the permafrost and drainage basins of the Alaskan interior.
