2018 Map of Flaxman Island A-5 NE

About this map

Alaska Island and the Maguire Islands form a slender barrier chain against the Beaufort Sea along this stretch of the Arctic coast. The landscape is defined by the transition from the marine environment to the wetland-heavy mainland of the North Slope, where jagged shorelines are punctuated by Point Gordon, Point Hopson, and Point Sweeney. This 2018 survey reveals the intricate hydrography of the region, where countless small ponds and coastal lagoons dominate the terrain behind the protective arc of Challenge Island and Duchess Island. The map provides a precise view of these shifting coastal features as they existed in the early 21st century, serving as a critical reference for understanding the geomorphology of this remote maritime frontier.
