The remote coastline of the North Slope Borough meets the expanse of the Chukchi Sea along this northwestern stretch of the Arctic frontier. The topography is defined by significant maritime landmarks, including the prominent headlands of Cape Lewis and Cape Dyer. These coastal features serve as critical navigational points along an otherwise continuous shoreline, where the land rises sharply from the water's edge. Inland, the hydrology is sparse, represented by the drainage of Kapaloak Cr, which flows toward the sea south of the primary capes. This 2014 survey documents the area's geography as part of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating the township and range divisions of t8s r60w and t9s r61w against the stark coastal environment.
