2017 Map of Umiat B-1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Kuparuk River carves through the undulating tundra of the North Slope, appearing here as a complex network of braided channels and shifting sandbars. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reveals a landscape dominated by permafrost-influenced hydrology, where countless thaw lakes and ephemeral ponds saturate the terrain between the river and the township lines. The mapping of t2n r6e, t1n r7e, and adjacent townships provides a technical record of the surface water distribution and topographic relief at a 1:25,000 scale. This specific quadrangle captures the raw character of the arctic coastal plain, emphasizing the intricate water-land interface of the Kuparuk River valley in a region defined by its lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure.
