2020 Map of Teshekpuk A-1 SE

About this map

Inigok Airport provides a rare point of human infrastructure in this section of the North Slope, where the landscape is defined by a dense concentration of thaw lakes and wetlands. The survey reveals a complex hydrological network characteristic of the Arctic coastal plain, showing the intricate patterns of water bodies and the subtle elevations that guide drainage across the tundra. While the land is primarily characterized by its remote natural features, the presence of the airport and the underlying cadastral divisions, including township and range lines like t9n r5w and t8n r5w, indicate the logistical and administrative framework governing this Alaskan interior. Researchers will find this 2020 data essential for tracking topographical changes in a region where the shifting permafrost and water levels constantly reshape the terrain.
