2014 Map of Norton Bay D-5 SW

About this map

The Bering Sea coastline defines this portion of the Norton Bay region, where tidal flats and intricate coastal drainage systems meet the open water. This 2014 survey captures the meandering path of the Kuiuktulik River as it winds across the low-lying terrain before reaching the sea. The landscape is characterized by a high density of small ponds and wetlands typical of the Alaskan coastal tundra, punctuated by the northern reach of the Miniatulik River. A singular point of land-based transport, Six Mile Road, traces a path along the higher ground near the river system, providing a rare interior link through the township boundaries of t7s r13w and t7s r14w. This map offers a technical perspective on a remote shoreline where the interaction between freshwater river discharge and the sea is the primary geographical focus.
