1986 Map of Survey Pass D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Continental Divide winds across this section of the central Brooks Range, marking the boundary between waters flowing north toward the Arctic Ocean and south toward the Koyukuk drainage. This 1986 edition illustrates the protected status of the interior, featuring the Gates of the Arctic National Park and the deeply interior Gates of the Arctic Wilderness. The landscape is defined by its glacial drainage patterns, where the Nigu River flows through the northern reaches within the North Slope Borough. To the south, the headwaters of the Alatna River and the Weyahok River carve through high alpine terrain, passing distinctive landmarks such as Cravens Peak. This map records the region as it was formally designated following the 1980 Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, reflecting a transition to federal wilderness management.
