The coastal transition from the Chukchi Sea to the Arctic interior is documented here through a series of complex lagoons and river systems. The Kivalina Lagoon and Kivalik Inlet dominate the southern coastline, where the Kivalina River and Imnakuk River discharge into the sea. This landscape is characterized by its hydrological features and named landmarks that likely served as essential orientation points for those navigating the region, such as Kavrorak Springs and the Winter Trail that skirts the shoreline.
