About this map

The Arctic coastal plain in the North Slope Borough is defined by a complex network of thaw lakes and wandering watercourses as captured in this 2014 survey. The hydrological pattern is dominated by the winding path of Ikpitcheak Cr, which meanders through the central and southern portions of the landscape. To the southeast, the headwaters of Katrikorak Cr emerge, cutting through the low-relief terrain. This map serves as a precise record of the shoreline and drainage patterns typical of the region, where subtle elevation changes of only ten feet dictate the flow of water across the tundra. The absence of roads or permanent structures reflects the remote nature of this environment, focusing instead on the natural landforms and the established Public Land Survey System divisions between t10n r33w, t10n r32w, t9n r33w, and t9n r32w.
