Nunivak Island meets the eastern reaches of the Bering Sea in this 2020 topographic record of the Alaska coast. The landscape is defined by its dramatic maritime interface, most notably at the sharp rise of Binaksbak Bluff and the protruding landform of Datheekook Point. This coastal quadrangle reveals a terrain where the high plateaus of the island interior drop toward the shoreline, providing a clear view of the natural topography before it descends to the water. The only significant drainage in the eastern sector is the Dooksook River, which winds through the interior highlands. This survey documents the physical geography of this isolated island setting, capturing the precise contours of the bluffs and the tidal interface of the Bering Sea.
