About this map

Norton Sound defines the northwest corner of this coastal landscape in the Kusilvak Census Area. The map details a complex wetland environment dominated by winding waterways, most notably Uwik Slough in the northern reach and Elongozhik Slough at the southern edge. The lack of terrestrial roads or settlements highlights the isolation of this delta region, where the terrain is governed by tidal influence and seasonal hydrological shifts. This topographic study focuses on the intricate network of ponds and channels that characterize the Alaskan tundra, providing a detailed record of the shifting water boundaries within the t26s r29w and t27s r28w townships. Researchers can use this data to understand the precise layout of the coastal marshes as they existed at the turn of the decade.
