About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses the heart of this high-latitude survey, defining a landscape of dramatic elevation and drainage patterns in the Brooks Range. The central terrain is anchored by Angiaak Pass, a significant geographic corridor between the southern and northern drainages of the central Arctic. This transition is marked by the headwaters and upper reaches of several vital waterways, including the southward-flowing Reed River and the meandering Angayuk Creek. Mapping of this remote area reveals the complex topography of the Alaska-Northwest Arctic Borough, where steep ridgelines give way to glacial valleys. To the east, Tupik Cr cuts through the township of t24n r17e, illustrating the stark and unpopulated character of this subarctic wilderness in the early 21st century.
