2014 Map of Wainwright A-1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Avalik River winds through this Arctic landscape in the North Slope Borough, defining the southern boundary of a region dominated by intricate thermokarst activity. The drainage patterns shown here, including Irak Cr in the northeast and Oyagaruk Cr in the southeast, reveal a low-lying tundra environment where water and permafrost dictate the topography. This 2014 survey captures the North Slope just before modern shifts in hydrography began to accelerate, offering a baseline of the numerous lakes and intermittent streams that characterize the North American Arctic coast. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the extreme isolation of this terrain, where the natural movement of the river systems remains the primary geographical feature within the established township and range lines.
