2016 Map of Survey Pass B-2 SW

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses the majority of this high-latitude terrain, where the topographic contours reveal a landscape shaped by extreme elevation changes. The Continental Divide meanders across the lower portion of the sheet, marking the significant hydrologic boundary that separates river drainage systems. Following a winding path through the northern and central sections, the Takahula River serves as the primary water feature, carving through the mountainous terrain of the Brooks Range. This 2016 survey illustrates the undeveloped character of northern Alaska, defined by township and range lines such as t22n r22e and t23n r23e that impose a coordinate system over a vast wilderness without established settlements or roads.
