About this map

The Ugnuravik River meanders through an intricate coastal landscape on the edge of the Beaufort Sea in this 1955 topographic study. This arctic environment is characterized by a dense concentration of thaw lakes and ponds, interspersed with small topographic rises such as Thetis Mound and Jones Mound. The northern reach of the sheet includes the sheltered waters of Simpson Lagoon, separated from the open sea by a series of barrier islands.
