2015 Map of Shungnak D-5 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Glacial remains and arctic wetlands dominate this portion of the Shungnak D-5 SW quadrangle. The terrain is characterized by a dense concentration of kettle lakes and thermokarst basins, creating a complex water-bound landscape without any established settlements or transportation infrastructure. This detailed 2015 study by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a high-resolution view of the shifting hydrography in the Northwest Arctic Borough. The lack of human development or named geographic features on this specific sheet underscores the isolation of the region, where the Public Land Survey System grids such as T17N R2E and T16N R3E represent the only formal human organization on the land.
