2014 Map of Wainwright A-6 SW
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
The Utukok River empties into the coastal waters of the Chukchi Sea in this remote stretch of the North Slope. The landscape is defined by the narrow barrier of Solivik Island, which separates the open sea from the tidal environment of Kasegaluk Lagoon. The Utukok Pass provides a break in these coastal formations, marking where the river's influence meets the salt water. This 2014 survey captures the shifting hydrology of the Arctic shoreline, where the braided channels of the lower Utukok delta wind through low-lying terrain. The map offers a precise view of these dynamic landforms, useful for studying coastal erosion and the historical changes in Alaska's northernmost maritime boundaries.
