1955 Map of Utukok River B-3

About this map

Avingak Creek and the meandering reaches of Elusive Creek dominate this mid-century topographic study of the North Slope. Captured during a 1955 survey by the Army Map Service, the landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and isolated peaks, including Omicron Hill in the northeast and Sun in the southwest. The entire region is part of the Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, a designation that shaped the mapping and management of this Arctic territory during the Cold War era. Survey markers like Tike, Nort, and Etu provide specific points of reference across a terrain lacking any roads or permanent settlements at the time of the field annotation.
