Bering Sea waters dominate this coastal portion of Saint Lawrence Island, where the shoreline meets the expansive North Pacific. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the sea to the land at Emeghee Point, a prominent geographical marker on the eastern edge of the survey area. To the north, the protected waters of Kangeeghuk Bay indent the coastline, suggesting a natural harbor or seasonal gathering area within the larger maritime environment. The interior of the island is delineated by the Public Land Survey System grid of t29s r59w, marking the administrative organization of this remote Alaskan territory. This 2020 edition provides a clear record of the island's coastal geography and maritime boundaries in the Nome Census Area.
