1955 Map of Barrow B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The North Slope Borough coast is defined here by the barrier islands and shallow waters that separate the Arctic Ocean from the protected interior. The Plover Islands and Tapkaluk Islands form a narrow, intermittent arc that shelters the broad Elson Lagoon. This coastal landscape, part of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, reveals a sparse but functional network of transportation and geography at the edge of the Beaufort Sea.
