2015 Map of Shungnak C-5 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Kugarak River meanders across this northern landscape, defining the character of a region where water and marshland dominate the geography. This 2015 study of the Northwest Arctic illustrates a complex network of thaw lakes and ponds that vary in density across the townships of t16n r2e, t16n r3e, and t15n r3e. The southern portion of the map transitions into higher ground, showing a distinct change in elevation where the myriad small water bodies give way to more defined topographical contours. This map captures the natural drainage patterns and seasonal wetlands of the Arctic wilderness prior to any significant modern infrastructure development, serving as a primary reference for the hydrology of this specific corridor in the Shungnak area.
