2017 Map of Umiat C-2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

The Itkillik River winds through this Arctic landscape, defining a complex system of oxbow lakes, marshes, and shifting wetlands in the North Slope Borough. This remote expanse of the Arctic Coastal Plain is characterized by a high density of thaw lakes and braided stream channels, illustrating the hydrological dynamics of the region's permafrost environment. Along the eastern edge of the river's path, the Slotukuyuk Bluff provides a distinct topographic rise in an otherwise low-lying wetland corridor. This 2017 study captures the area's geography as documented across portions of T3N R4E, T3N R5E, T2N R4E, and T2N R5E, providing a detailed record of the water drainage patterns and land surface features before subsequent seasonal shifts or long-term climatic changes further alter the soft-sediment terrain of the northern tundra.
