1985 Map of Selawik B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Inland Lake dominates the upper northwestern quadrant of this Alaskan landscape, where the waters meet the extensive wetlands of the Selawik National Wildlife Refuge. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of thaw lakes and ponds, typical of the Arctic coastal plain, interspersed with watercourses such as Hunt Creek and the Fox R. Compiled from 1971 aerial photography, the map documents a delicate subarctic ecosystem defined by its drainage patterns rather than human infrastructure, as the legend explicitly notes a total absence of roads. The survey emphasizes the hydrological character of the region, tracing the winding paths of creeks as they navigate the low-lying tundra before emptying into larger bodies of water.
