2014 Map of Utukok River C-4 NE

About this map

The Utukok River dominates this Arctic landscape as it meanders through the North Slope’s vast wetlands and tundra. This 2014 survey captures the intricate hydrological patterns of the region, where the river channel loops and weaves between numerous small thaw lakes and depressions. The map is defined by the Public Land Survey System grid, covering portions of t5n r37w, t5n r36w, t4n r37w, and surrounding townships. This is a landscape of profound isolation and water-dominated terrain, where the absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the wilderness character of Alaska's northernmost reaches. The detailed contouring illustrates the subtle elevation changes that direct the flow of the Utukok River as it traverses the coastal plain.
