2017 Map of Beechey Point B-3 SE

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Prudhoe Bay and the surrounding coastal tundra are the focus of this contemporary topographic study, showing the complex interface where the North Slope meets the Arctic Ocean. The shoreline is defined by the expansive Stefansson Sound to the north, with the Sagavanirktok River and Putuligayuk River carving through a landscape dominated by thaw lakes and wetlands. This map provides a detailed view of the coastal geography just offshore, including Gull Island and the Niakuk Islands. Further inland, the distinctive Prudhoe Mound stands as a notable relief feature on the otherwise flat, water-saturated plain. The survey reflects the modern industrial and environmental landscape of this vital energy region, documenting the hydrographic patterns of the rivers as they approach their deltaic outlets into the Beaufort Sea.
