Arctic National Wildlife Refuge encompasses the vast majority of this coastal landscape on the North Slope, where the tundra meets the Beaufort Sea. The map reveals a complex network of braided waterways and coastal landforms, including the prominent Humphrey Point and the sheltered waters of Pokok Bay. Several significant rivers wind through the low-lying terrain, such as the Kimikpaurauk River, the Siksik River, and the Sikrelurak River. These water systems dominate the geography, illustrating the drainage patterns of the far north. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise view of the shoreline and the interior wetlands, vital for understanding the ecological and topographical character of this protected wilderness area.
