2016 Map of Wiseman B-4 NE

About this map

Wild Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Brooks Range interior, marking a significant hydrologic feature where the terrain begins its steep ascent into the surrounding peaks. The drainage pattern is defined by the Wild River, which flows south from the lake through a glaciated valley. This 2016 survey illustrates the remote character of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, where the land is primarily shaped by watercourses like Seward Cr and Lake Cr rather than human infrastructure. Small tributaries such as McCamant Cr and Crevice Cr feed into the primary river system, tracing narrow paths through the high-elevation contours. The map effectively captures a wilderness area defined by its verticality and the pristine state of its watershed, offering a precise record of the natural topography in this part of northern Alaska.
