1985 Map of Shungnak B-2

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this subarctic landscape, separating the drainage systems in a region defined by high mountain ridges and river valleys. To the north, the Selawik River meanders through the protected expanse of the Selawik National Wildlife Refuge, joined by tributaries like Shiniliaok Creek. This 1985 provisional survey captures a remote wilderness before modern infrastructure, where the terrain is dominated by the Purcell Mountains in the southwest and the Zane Hills in the northeast. A notable natural feature includes Springs (Hot) located near the center of the quadrangle, indicating geothermal activity in this frozen environment. The map provides a technical look at elevation and water flow, including the course of Wheeler Creek, in a territory without established roads or trails.
