1990 Map of Survey Pass C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park dominates this northern Alaskan interior, where the Noatak River serves as the primary drainage for a landscape defined by sharp alpine peaks and glacial valleys. Compiled from aerial photography taken in 1979 and 1980, the map illustrates the hydrology of the Brooks Range, centered around the Gates of the Arctic Wilderness designation. To the south, the Igning River and Kugrak River carve through high-altitude terrain near Oyukak Mountain. Significant water features such as Lake Omelaktavik and the winding Nigikpalugururak Creek provide essential reference points for this roadless territory. The survey indicates a region managed entirely for conservation and natural processes, reflecting its status just after the establishment of the national park boundaries.
