1972 Map of Table Mountain B-4

About this map

Arctic National Wildlife Range dominates this 1970s landscape, illustrating a vast interior wilderness before significant modern infrastructure. The terrain is defined by the hydrologic network of the Sheenjek River and its major tributary, the East Fork Sheenjek River, which meander through high-latitude valleys. The map records the North Slope Borough Boundary crossing the northern portion of the sheet, marking a significant administrative line in the Alaskan wilderness. Small-scale topographical details highlight isolated peaks like Kaultui Mountain and minor drainage systems including Kaultuinjek Creek and Eskimo Creek. This survey represents the area as it existed during a period of expanding federal land management, showing a landscape devoid of established roads or permanent settlements.
