1955 Map of Demarcation Point

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Demarcation Point and its coastal surroundings on the Beaufort Sea define this northernmost reach of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness. This mid-century survey illustrates the drainage of the Romanzof Mountains and British Mountains, where peaks such as Mt Isto and Mt Hubley rise above the Continental Divide. The map details the transition from high alpine terrain to the coastal plains, marked by a series of lagoons including Angun Lagoon and Pingokraluk Lagoon protected by the Icy Reef. Human presence is sparse, noted at the settlement of Gordon and various coastal ruins. A remote landing strip at Nuvagapak Pt and a Tractor Trail following the shoreline represent the primary infrastructure connecting these desolate points along the Alaska-Yukon border.
