The Kachemach River meanders across this Arctic landscape, defining the hydrology of the North Slope's northern reaches. This 2017 survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns of a region where water and permafrost dominate the terrain, far above the Brooks Range. The map defines the Public Land Survey System boundaries for t7n r6e, t7n r7e, t6n r6e, and t6n r7e, providing a precise grid for an area primarily characterized by its lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure. It serves as a vital record of the natural state of the Alaskan tundra before potential shifts in the landscape occur, highlighting the seasonal flow of the Kachemach River and its surrounding wetlands.
