2016 Map of Selawik C-3 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

Selawik Lake dominates the southern portion of this landscape, its broad waters meeting the intricate shoreline of the Northwest Arctic Borough. This 2016 survey captures a remote subarctic environment where the Selawik River flows into the eastern reach of the lake, creating a complex delta system of shifting channels and marshy terrain. The prominent Shoniktok Point serves as a distinct landmark along the northern shore, marking the transition between the open lake and the river's mouth. Smaller waterways, including Apatotilik Creek, drain the tundra into the northern basin, illustrating the hydrology of this seasonally dynamic region. The lack of built infrastructure or settlements highlights the isolation of this corner of the Arctic, defined instead by the rhythmic intersection of water and land.
