About this map

The Arctic coastline of the Chukchi Sea dominates the northwest corner of this North Slope landscape, where the waters of the Kasegaluk Lagoon sit protected behind a narrow coastal barrier. Moving inland, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Tunalik River, which meanders through a complex network of thermokarst lakes and ponds. This 2014 representation highlights the delicate hydrologic patterns of the Alaskan tundra, showing how the river system drains the low-lying plains of Township 10 North, Range 37 West and its neighboring sections. The lack of roads or permanent structures on this sheet underscores the preservation of a traditional natural landscape, shaped primarily by seasonal water movement and permafrost dynamics rather than industrial or residential development.
