2020 Map of Teshekpuk D-2 NW

About this map

Beaufort Sea waters dominate the northern reaches of this coastal survey, where the Arctic shoreline meets the edge of the North Slope. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the sea to the low-lying tundra, most notably marked by the protrusion of Drew Point. This specific geography illustrates the remote coastal boundary of the t18n r8w township, characterized by expansive wetlands and a nearly level topographic profile. The lack of interior roads or permanent infrastructure highlights the extreme environmental conditions of the region during this 2020 survey, providing a precise record of the shoreline's position and the character of the coastal plain.
