2017 Map of Beechey Point B-1 SE

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Beaufort Sea waters dominate this coastal Arctic landscape, where the shifting interface of ice and ocean meets the northernmost reaches of the Alaskan mainland. The map depicts a sparse and specialized environment characterized by the Newport Entrance, a passage leading toward the protective fringe of the Stockton Islands. Among these landforms is Pole Island, a small but distinct feature at the edge of the continental shelf. The land-based portion of the quadrangle is strictly defined by the Alaska North Slope boundary, marking the vast administrative and geological extent of the region. This 2017 survey illustrates the essential maritime and topographic markers used for navigation and territory management in a region where few permanent settlements exist, but where the coastlines and barrier islands remain critical for environmental monitoring and resource logistics.
