About this map

Point Hope occupies the tip of a prominent triangular spit extending into the Chukchi Sea, where the coastal geography is defined by a complex system of lagoons and inlets. This 1952 survey, published by the U.S. Geological Survey and based on Army Map Service aerial photography, documents the settlement during a period when evidence of earlier habitation remained prominent. Archaeological and historical sites are noted near the village, including Ipiutak (Ruins) and Jabbertown (Ruins), alongside a Mission and a Cem.
