2016 Map of Survey Pass C-1 NE

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses the entirety of this remote interior Alaska landscape, characterized by dramatic elevation changes and a primitive drainage network. The topographic detail reflects a high-altitude wilderness where glacial carving and seasonal melt define the land. Two primary watercourses, Kevuk Cr in the northern section and Dawn Cr which meanders through the central and southern reaches, serve as the principal landmarks for this roadless territory. The survey highlights the immense scale of the Brooks Range, showing peaks and ridges that rise several thousand feet above the valley floors. This map provides a look at the pristine environment within one of the nation's most protected wilderness areas, where the absence of man-made infrastructure emphasizes the preservation of the Arctic ecosystem.
