About this map

The Ivisaruk River and Kuk River dominate this coastal landscape on the North Slope, where the arctic tundra meets a complex network of tidal estuaries. The terrain is characterized by a high concentration of thaw lakes and wetlands typical of this permafrost-rich region, with Kupluruak Point serving as a distinct landmark along the northern shoreline. Smaller tributaries like Apikuguruak Cr and Ikpitcheak Cr drain the low-lying interior, illustrating the intricate hydrology of the area before modern infrastructure arrived. This 2014 survey documents the seasonal waterways that have long dictated the movement of indigenous populations and local wildlife across the vast Arctic coastal plain.
