2018 Map of Hagemeister Island C-6 SE

About this map

Cape Peirce defines the dramatic meeting point of terrestrial contours and the Pacific Ocean on this coastal Alaskan sheet. The topography reveals a jagged coastline where the land terminates abruptly into the sea, forming the sheltered waters of Nanvak Bay to the north. This maritime environment is further characterized by Shaiak Island, a distinct landmass positioned off the eastern coast. The map illustrates a landscape shaped entirely by natural forces, devoid of established roads or settlements, as evidenced by the dominance of the Public Land Survey System grid including t18s r76w and t19s r75w. The intricate contour lines around the headlands indicate steep coastal elevations that have long served as significant landmarks for navigation along the Bering Sea approach.
