2020 Map of Barrow B-3 SE

About this map

The Beaufort Sea coast dominates this Arctic landscape on the North Slope, where the coastline is defined by the narrow Ekilukruak Entrance. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a shoreline and marine environment documented during a period of significant observation in the early 21st century. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System divisions, including sections within t23n r15w and t22n r15w, which are critical for understanding land management in this remote region. The absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the character of the Alaskan North Slope as a workspace for environmental monitoring and indigenous land use rather than industrial or urban development.
