1952 Map of Point Hope A-2

About this map

Cape Thompson and the dramatic coastal bluffs of the Chukchi Sea define this remote Alaskan landscape as it was documented in 1952. The map features the Chariot (Site) near Ogotoruk Creek, a location later known for its role in Cold War scientific and nuclear engineering studies. The coastal geography is marked by a series of lagoons including Aiautak Lagoon, Kemegrak Lagoon, and Akoviknak Lagoon, separated from the sea by gravel and coarse sand beaches.
