About this map

Baldwin Peninsula forms a narrow terrestrial finger between two major arctic waterways on this 2016 survey. This thin strip of land serves as a natural barrier, separating the brackish waters of Hotham Inlet to the east from the open marine environment of Kotzebue Sound to the west. The topography is characterized by low-elevation coastal tundra and a complex network of small wetlands and drainage patterns. The map highlights the shifting interface of land and sea in the Northwest Arctic Borough, where the peninsula's coastline is the primary geographic driver of local navigation and environmental character. This specific section of the peninsula exhibits the transition from the marine-influenced western shores to the more sheltered waters of the inlet, providing a detailed look at the hydrology of this sub-arctic coastal landform.
