About this map

The Chukchi Sea dominates this coastal landscape within the North Slope Borough, where a slender barrier island chain separates the open sea from the sheltered waters of Kasegaluk Lagoon. This fragile coastal boundary is punctuated by Akunik Pass, a tidal opening that facilitates the movement of water and nutrients between the lagoon and the arctic ocean. To the east, the mainland shoreline is marked by Tungaich Point, a prominent landform at the mouth of Tungak Cr. The hydrology of this region reflects the low-lying, water-dominated nature of the Alaskan arctic coast, where shifting sands and seasonal water flow define the geography. The map provides a precise look at the township and range lines, such as t7n r43w, overlaid on this remote maritime environment.
