2020 Map of Teshekpuk C-2 NW

About this map

The vast coastal plain of the Teshekpuk Lake region is defined here by an intricate mosaic of thaw lakes and wetlands. This particular portion of the North Slope, Alaska, as documented in 2020, captures the interaction between the southern reaches of the lake and the winding Iguakiak River to the southwest. The landscape is a testament to Arctic geomorphology, dominated by thermokarst activity that creates hundreds of small, nameless water bodies across the tundra. Because this area is primarily government-managed land within the National Petroleum Reserve, the map serves as a critical baseline for understanding the hydrologic connectivity of one of Alaska's most significant migratory bird and caribou habitats. The lack of man-made infrastructure or settlements emphasizes the remote, ecologically-focused nature of this terrain during the early 21st century.
