2020 Map of Teshekpuk B-3 NE

About this map

Arctic coastal plain terrain dominates this remote portion of the North Slope, defined by a dense network of thermokarst lakes and intricate wetlands. The landscape is structured by the Public Land Survey System, specifically within T13n R10w, T13n R9w, T12n R10w, and T12n R9w. These township and range boundaries provide the only formal human organization over a vast, water-heavy geography where land and lake boundaries shift seasonally. The map serves as a precise record of the lake distributions and hydrological patterns as they existed in the early 21st century, offering a baseline for studying the geomorphology of the Alaskan tundra.
