USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
The Kobuk River delta and its intricate network of channels, including Melvin Channel and Riley Channel, dominate this mid-century survey of the Northwest Arctic. Settlements such as Kiana, Noorvik, and Selawik serve as hubs within a landscape defined by massive water bodies like Selawik Lake and Inland Lake. The interior is marked by the Waring Mountains and Hockley Hills, while a Winter Trail provides a glimpse into the seasonal transport routes through the Native Reservation north of the delta.
