2014 Map of Shishmaref B-2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Chukchi Sea coastline dominates this 2014 survey, illustrating the fragile barrier island landscape along Alaska's northwestern edge. The map documents the slender ribbon of land separating the open sea from the protected waters of Shishmaref Inlet, a region defined by its dynamic shoreline and vast tidal flats. Within the Nome Census Area, the sheet reveals the complex network of lagoons and sand spits that characterize this subarctic environment. The lack of terrestrial development or infrastructure highlights the isolation of this maritime landscape, where the shifting boundary between land and water is the primary geographic feature. The grid systems of T11N R34W and T10N R34W provide the only structural references across this remote stretch of the Seward Peninsula.
