About this map

The remote coastline of Norton Sound is captured here as it appeared in 1950, highlighting a landscape defined by seasonal movement and subsistence. The village of Shaktoolik serves as a focal point along the shore, accompanied by support structures like the Shaktoolik Boathouse and several cabins. The presence of the Reindeer Reservation and the Reindeer Hills reflects the importance of reindeer herding in this region during the mid-20th century.
