2014 Map of Kotzebue A-5 NW

About this map

The Bering Land Bridge National Preserve dominates this remote Arctic landscape, representing a critical area for understanding the ancient migration corridor between Asia and North America. This 2014 survey documents a vast expanse of tundra and wetlands within the Nome Census Area and the Northwest Arctic Borough. The hydrology is defined by the winding paths of the Nugnugaluktuk River in the north and the Lane River to the south. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the Lane River Road and the Me_unassigned_lane River Road, which cut through the southern sections of the quadrangle. The map illustrates the complex network of thaw lakes and drainages characteristic of this permafrost-underlain region, providing a detailed record of the terrain as it existed in the early 21st century.
