2016 Map of Umiat A-4 NE

About this map

Natvatchiak Hill dominates the central landscape of this North Slope region, where the topography shifts from the low-lying wetlands of the northern coastal plain into the rising foothills. This 2016 survey illustrates a remote wilderness defined by intricate contour lines and scattered water bodies, reflecting the seasonal drainage patterns of the Arctic tundra. In the southeast corner, Paunagaktuk Bluff provides a distinct change in elevation, marking the transition toward more varied upland terrain. The map is organized by the Public Land Survey System, showing the intersections of townships like t3s r1e and t4s r1w. This document serves as a detailed record of the natural landforms in an area largely untouched by permanent human infrastructure, essential for understanding the physical geography of the Umiat region.
