2020 Map of Teshekpuk C-3 NW

About this map

Ikpikpuk River winds through this Arctic landscape, defining the hydrology of the North Slope in this 2020 study. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of thaw lakes and ponds, typical of the permafrost-underlain coastal plain. In the eastern portion of the sheet, the Miguakiak River flows through a similarly intricate system of wetlands and small water bodies. This map provides a technical overview of the shifting Arctic waterways and the Public Land Survey System grid, including boundaries such as t16n r10w and t15n r11w, which are essential for navigating and managing this remote region. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the wilderness character of the borough, where traditional navigation and seasonal water flow remain the primary geographic features.
