2014 Map of Kotzebue A-6 NW

About this map

The Bering Land Bridge National Preserve dominates this Arctic landscape, representing a segment of the Seward Peninsula characterized by intricate thermokarst topography. A dense network of thaw lakes and ponds is visible across the survey, illustrating the dynamic hydrology of the Alaskan tundra. The Nugnugaluktuk River winds through the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary drainage for the surrounding plains. Human presence is defined by the Lane River Road, which provides a solitary corridor across the terrain, crossing through Township 9 North. This 2014 survey documents the complex interactions between permafrost features and the sparse infrastructure within this protected coastal region of Alaska.
