2016 Map of Wiseman D-4 NW

About this map

Gates of the Arctic National Park dominates this 2016 survey of the high Brooks Range, capturing a wilderness landscape defined by the towering Endicott Mountains. The topography is marked by significant elevation changes, with drainage systems like Till Cr in the north and Savuotuk Cr in the southeast carving through the alpine terrain. Located within the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, the map depicts a region devoid of permanent settlements or road infrastructure, focusing instead on the complex natural contouring of the arctic divide. This U.S. Geological Survey record serves as a precise digital-era baseline for the remote interior, where township and range lines like t36n r19w provide the only formal grid over the protected federal lands.
