2016 Map of Shungnak B-3 NE

About this map

Selawik River meanders across the northern reaches of this Arctic landscape, carving a complex network of oxbows and wetlands through the tundra. The terrain is defined by its transition from the low-lying river basin to the rising elevations in the south, where the drainage of Shiniliaok Cr emerges. This 2016 survey documents a remote boundary line where the Northwest Arctic Borough meets the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, an administrative division in a region largely devoid of permanent human infrastructure. The map provides a precise record of the hydrography and elevation contours that dictate movement and subsistence patterns in this part of the Alaskan interior, illustrating the vast, unpopulated character of the land between the major river systems.
