Arctic Ocean waters meet the coastal edge of the North Slope Borough in this 2014 mapping of the Alaskan coast. The landscape is defined by the transition between the vast Chukchi Sea and the narrow, protected waters of Marryat Inlet, which is sheltered from the open sea by a thin coastal barrier. Significant coastal landmarks include Pingu Bluff and the prominent Nuvugalak Point, which help define the geography of this remote Arctic shoreline. This survey provides a precise modern record of the shoreline and maritime boundaries in a region where the intersection of land and sea is constantly influenced by the environment of the Far North.
