1955 Map of Demarcation Point C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Demarcation Bay and the surrounding coastline of the Beaufort Sea dominate this mid-century survey of the far northern coast. The map illustrates a remote landscape where water and land merge through features like Siku Lagoon and Pingokraluk Lagoon, protected behind narrow reefs. Human presence is sparse, noted at the settlement of Gordon and the Kuluruak (Site), alongside specialized markers such as the Demarcation St Base. To the east, the United States-Canada border is marked by the Alaska-Yukon boundary line. This territory is largely defined by the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, where the Turner River and Putugook Creek drain from the southern uplands toward the bights and lagoons of the Arctic shore. The presence of Winter Trails highlights the seasonal nature of travel in this region long before modern infrastructure.
