The Meade River winds through this coastal Arctic landscape on the North Slope of Alaska, meeting the complex network of lagoons and wetlands that define the shoreline. This 2020 survey illustrates the dynamic hydrologic patterns of the region, where the river's path eventually nears the Beaufort Sea. Significant coastal features like McTavish Point serve as primary landmarks in an area dominated by intricate water systems and shifting wetlands. The map provides a detailed view of the terrain within the North Slope Borough, illustrating the vast expanse of the National Petroleum Reserve and its characteristic permafrost-influenced geography.
