1955 Map of Barter Island A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Arctic National Wildlife Range spans this coastal stretch of the North Slope, where the Beaufort Sea meets a complex system of barrier islands and inlets. In 1955, the coastline was defined by narrow landforms like Jago Spit and Tapkaurak Spit, which protected the shallow waters of Jago Lagoon and Tapkaurak Lagoon from the open sea. This survey reveals a landscape shaped by shifting waters and early Arctic presence, noted by Ruins near Martin Point.
