2016 Map of Survey Pass A-5 SW

About this map

Beaver Creek winds through the eastern edge of this northern Alaska landscape, a primary drainage point in a terrain defined by dramatic elevation changes. This 2016 survey highlights the intricate topographic relief of the Northwest Arctic Borough, where steep ridgelines descend into the river basin. The map is organized by the Public Land Survey System, covering portions of T20n R15e, T20n R16e, T19n R15e, and T19n R16e. The absence of roads or established settlements emphasizes the character of this arctic wilderness, where natural features provide the only landmarks for navigation or land management. It serves as a modern record of the hydrology and topography in a region where the environment remains the dominant force.
