2016 Map of Shungnak C-2 SW

About this map

Highland elevations of the Sheklukshuk Range dominate the northern landscape of this interior Alaskan territory. The terrain transitions south toward the Kiliovilik Range, where steep contours descend into a network of wetlands and small lakes in the lower quadrants. Surveyed by the U.S. Geological Survey using data from 2009 through 2016, the map documents a remote wilderness defined by the Northwest Arctic Borough boundaries and the Public Land Survey System. The lack of roads or established settlements emphasizes the undisturbed nature of these ranges, providing a precise topographic record of these landforms before further environmental shifts.
