1951 Map of Demarcation Point

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Demarcation Point stands as the northernmost anchor of the Alaska Yukon boundary, where the United States Canada border meets the Beaufort Sea. In the mid-twentieth century, this remote Arctic landscape was defined by the transition from the high peaks of the Brooks Range to the coastal lagoons and barrier islands of the north coast. The settlement at Gordon provides a rare human footprint in a region dominated by massive hydrological systems, including the braided channels of the Jago River, Okerokovik River, and Kongakut River.
