2016 Map of Survey Pass D-6 NW

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses this high-altitude landscape in the Brooks Range as it appeared during the 2016 survey. The terrain is characterized by steep elevation changes and narrow drainage basins, most notably that of Midas Cr, which flows through the southwestern portion of the quadrangle. As a remote wilderness area within the Northwest Arctic, the map shows no roads or permanent structures, focusing instead on the hydrography and detailed contour lines that define the mountainous interior. The survey documents the Public Land Survey System grid across townships t30n r13e and t29n r13e, providing a precise geometric framework for this undeveloped arctic environment.
