2016 Map of Survey Pass A-5 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

Akurekvik Pass serves as a natural corridor through the high-altitude terrain of the Northwest Arctic, illustrating the topographic isolation of this northern landscape. The map records a complex drainage system where the Reed River flows through the northeast corner, while the headwaters of Beaver Creek (labeled in parts as Beaver Cr) wind through the southern and western reaches. This area is defined by its lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure, organized instead by the Public Land Survey System boundaries of t21n r17e, t21n r16e, t20n r17e, and t20n r18e. The absence of roads or established trails highlights a wilderness state that remains essentially unchanged in its geographic character since the mid-20th century, making it a critical reference for understanding the hydrological patterns and high-latitude passes of the Brooks Range region.
