1955 Map of Point Lay A-3 and A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Cape Beaufort anchors the southwestern shoreline where the Chukchi Sea meets the northern coast of Alaska. This mid-century survey reveals a remote landscape defined by the drainage systems of the Amatusuk Hills, where numerous waterways like Amatusuk Creek and Kahreakak Creek flow toward the sea. Human presence is sparse, marked only by essential infrastructure for survival and transit across the tundra.
