2016 Map of Wiseman C-3 NE

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park encompasses nearly the entire landscape of this 2016 survey, reflecting a massive wilderness preserved in the Brooks Range. The North Fork Koyukuk River flows southward along the eastern boundary, serving as a primary hydrological artery for this remote arctic ecosystem. The terrain is defined by extreme relief and glacial carving, exemplified by the prominent Eroded Mtn in the southeastern quadrant. Tributaries such as Cladonia Cr, Pass Cr, and Redstar Cr drain the high slopes, forming a network of steep valleys and braided streams. This map documents a region almost entirely devoid of human infrastructure, focusing instead on the pristine natural boundaries and township lines of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
