1955 Map of Flaxman Island

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Flaxman Island and the neighboring Maguire Islands form a protective barrier against the Beaufort Sea along this stretch of the Arctic coast. This 1955 survey captures a coastline defined by intricate deltas and barrier chains, where the Canning River and Staines River empty into the sea. The landscape is sparse, marked primarily by isolated structures like a Cabin and various coastal points such as Bullen and Pt Thomson.
