The Avak River meanders across this northern landscape, providing the primary hydrological structure for this section of the North Slope. The terrain is characterized by a high-density network of small lakes and ponds particularly concentrated in the southern sections, likely reflecting the thermokarst processes common in this arctic region. Public land divisions including t8n r38w, t7n r38w, and t6n r38w define the administrative boundaries of the area. This 2014 survey serves as a modern record of the shifting water patterns and permafrost features within the borough before more recent environmental changes impacted the coastal plain hydrology.
