2020 Map of Harrison Bay D-5 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2020

About this map

The coastal interface of the North Slope where the Beaufort Sea meets the northern reaches of Harrison Bay defines this remote Arctic landscape. This 2020 survey documents the complex shoreline and wetland patterns of the Pogik Point area, a site where shifting sands and shallow waters are under constant transformation by ice and tides. The map’s grid system, including t18n r4w and t18n r3w, provides a formal framework for this uninhabited coastal stretch, which is characterized by a dense network of small lagoons, barrier islands, and seasonal wetlands. The lack of infrastructure highlights the pristine and isolated nature of the Alaskan coast in the early 21st century, offering a baseline for researchers tracking environmental changes and coastal erosion in the Beaufort Sea region.
