2015 Map of Selawik D-4 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

The Kobuk River dominates this landscape in the Northwest Arctic, revealing a complex network of branching waterways and delta-like formations. The terrain is defined by the braided paths of the Nazuruk Channel, Melvin Channel, and Oksik Channel, which carve through the low-lying basin. To the northeast, the elevation rises toward the Kiana Hills, providing a sharp topographic contrast to the saturated river valley below. Near the confluence of Oksik Creek and its namesake channel lies Tenmile Post, a solitary named landmark that suggests the area's history of river travel and remote navigation. The map's detail provides a clear view of how water dictates the geography of this subarctic region, illustrating the seasonal and geological shifts of these major Alaskan watercourses.
