1955 Map of Wainwright A-2

About this map

The Kuk River and its numerous tributaries dominate this mid-century landscape in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. The map documents a territory defined by complex drainage patterns, where the Kaolak River and Avalik River converge amidst a dense network of smaller streams like Ikpitcheak Creek and Adrigigon Creek. Evidence of seasonal Arctic travel and early exploration is visible through the Tractor Trail and Winter Trail systems that navigate the low-lying terrain.
