1955 Map of De Long Mountains D-5
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Cape Sabine and Corwin Bluff anchor the coastline of this Arctic reach, where the Chukchi Sea meets the northern slopes of the De Long Mountains. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Pitmegea River and its convergence with the Agiak Lagoon near the shore. Traces of human activity in this remote environment are represented by a solitary Mine near Kigiktowk Creek and the thin line of a Winter Trail that skirts the bluffs and lagoons. This mid-1950s survey captures the region just as photogrammetric methods were beginning to document the drainage patterns of Thetis Creek and the surrounding tundra elevations like Akporvik Hill in detail.
