1955 Map of Utukok River C-3

About this map

Utukok River meanders across this Arctic landscape, forming a complex network of oxbows and riparian wetlands within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. The terrain is characterized by the low-relief tundra of the North Slope, where the winding Kaolak River joins the main drainage system. A notable human trace in this wilderness is the Winter Trail that cuts across the northern section, suggesting a seasonal transportation route established long before permanent infrastructure reached this corner of the state.
