About this map

Sisgravik Lake dominates the central portion of this Arctic coastal region, where the terrestrial landscape transition to the waters of the Beaufort Sea. This 2016 survey highlights the intricate hydrology of the North Slope, characterized by vast wetland complexes and large coastal inlets. To the east, the map details the shoreline of Kuyanak Bay and the reach of Admiralty Bay, providing a clear record of the coastline's configuration. The area is divided by the Public Land Survey System grids of T19N R17W and T18N R16W, marking the administrative structure of this remote coastal territory. The absence of roads or permanent settlements underscores the wilderness character of this northern expanse, where water bodies and sea inlets are the primary geographic markers.
