About this map

Point Franklin extends into the Chukchi Sea, marking a significant navigational landmark along the Arctic coast. This mid-1950s record identifies the low-lying Seahorse Islands and the protected waters of Peard Bay, reflecting the maritime focus of the era. On the spit near the point, Tower Seahorse stands as a rare man-made structure in a landscape otherwise defined by shifting sands and lagoons.
