2017 Map of Beechey Point C-4 SW

About this map

Simpson Lagoon separates the mainland of the North Slope Borough from a delicate chain of barrier islands along the edge of the Beaufort Sea. This 2017 survey documents the low-lying coastal geography of the far north, where the Arctic Ocean meets a series of landforms named for regional figures and local history. The map traces the specific contours of the Jones Islands, including Bertoncini Island, Bodfish Island, and Cottle Island. On the southern shore of the lagoon, Kavearak Point marks a distinct protrusion into the water, illustrating the interaction between the maritime environment and the tundra. This document serves as a high-resolution record of the coastal transition zone in one of the most northern reaches of the United States.
