2015 Map of Shungnak B-5 NW

About this map

Selawik River meanders across the northern reaches of this Arctic landscape, creating a complex network of oxbows and riverine wetlands. The terrain is defined by the shifting course of the river and its tributary, Keruluk Cr, which flows northward through the central portion of the quadrangle. This 2015 survey, produced by the United States Geological Survey, documents the hydrography of this remote region within the Northwest Arctic Borough. The map illustrates the natural drainage patterns of the tundra, where small lakes and depressions dominate the spaces between the watercourses. While no permanent settlements are marked on this specific sheet, the intricate waterways suggest a landscape shaped by seasonal water movement and the slow evolution of the Arctic river system.
