1951 Map of Point Lay

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Point Lay serves as the primary coastal hub on this Arctic coastline, situated on a barrier island between the Chukchi Sea and the expansive Kasegaluk Lagoon. This 1951 survey, compiled from Trimetrogon photography and USGS fieldwork, illustrates a remote maritime landscape where the Kokolik River and Kukpowruk River drain into the lagoon system. The inland terrain rises from coastal marshes toward the Amatusuk Hills in the southeast.
