2014 Map of Point Hope B-3 SE

About this map

The Tigara Peninsula stretches into the Chukchi Sea, defining a coastal landscape where land and water are intricately linked. This 2014 survey documents a series of critical coastal features, from the narrow spit at Sinigrok Point to the isolated landform of Pingucheok in the south. The mapping highlights the complex lagoon and lake systems that characterize this part of the North Slope Borough, including Aiautak Lagoon and the freshwater Teshekpak Lake. These features reflect a dynamic environment where subsistence activities and seasonal change shape the geography. Farther north, the reach of Marryat Inlet and Lake Makpik provides further evidence of the region’s extensive hydrography, recorded here as part of the broader Arctic Ocean coastline.
