2014 Map of Point Hope D-2 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Arctic Ocean and Chukchi Sea waters dominate this remote coastal survey along the northwestern edge of the North Slope Borough. The map is characterized by its significant maritime coverage, illustrating the intersection of these two massive polar water bodies. On the limited landmass at the southern edge of the sheet, the Cape Lisburne LRRS Airport serves as the primary human landmark. This facility, part of the Long Range Radar Site system, represents the strategic military and logistical infrastructure required to maintain presence in the high Arctic. The coastline is marked by steep elevation changes near the cape, contrasting with the vast marine environment that occupies the majority of the quadrangle.
