About this map

Umiat sits at a strategic bend in the Colville River, serving as a vital outpost in the Arctic wilderness during the mid-1950s. This territory is defined by the sprawling Naval Petroleum Reserve No 4, reflecting the era's focus on national energy security and exploration. The landscape is a complex network of meandering waterways, including the Anaktuvuk River and Chandler River, which carve through the tundra alongside prominent landforms like Umiat Mountain and Sentinel Hill.
