2016 Map of Selawik B-6 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Kotzebue Sound dominates the western shoreline of this arctic coastal landscape, where the tides meet a complex network of wetlands and tidal flats. The region is defined by its transition between open saltwater and the interior waterways of Hotham Inlet to the north and Eschscholtz Bay to the south. This 2016 survey, while focused on modern hydrography, reveals the remote character of the Northwest Arctic, where the land is partitioned by the Public Land Survey System into townships like t12n r15w. The absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the environmental isolation of this coastal stretch, which serves as a critical junction for the region's natural drainage and coastal migratory corridors.
