1952 Map of Noatak A-4

About this map

Cape Krusenstern anchors this coastal study, marking the point where the Chukchi Sea meets Kotzebue Sound. The landscape is dominated by the massive Krusenstern Lagoon, separated from the open Arctic Ocean by a narrow barrier of Sand and Gravel. This shoreline features a lone Landing Strip and a Shelter Cabin, indicating the area's importance as a remote waypoint for coastal travel. Inland, the topography rises toward Eigaloruk Mtn and Ingitkalik Mtn, while the complex hydrology of Tulilik Lake and the Evelukpalik River drains into the lagoon system. Traces of human presence appear at the Tikizat (site) and the settlement of Talikoot (Aban'd), offering clues for researchers tracking indigenous land use and abandoned Arctic habitations.
