2016 Map of Shungnak D-1 NE

About this map

Mauneluk River dominates this landscape in the Northwest Arctic Borough, its winding path cutting through the center of the terrain. The river forms a complex network of oxbows and wetlands as it flows through the northern reaches of the state. This 2016 survey illustrates the remote character of the region, where the primary geographic features are the natural drainage systems and high elevation contours. The land is organized into several townships, including t18n r12e and t18n r13e, though the map remains focused on the unpopulated wilderness of the Alaskan interior. The lack of infrastructure or named settlements highlights the preserved state of this particular watershed.
