2014 Map of Wainwright B-4 SE

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Chukchi Sea coastline in the North Slope Borough defines this portion of the Arctic frontier, where the barrier-beach landscape separates open ocean from the expansive Kasegaluk Lagoon. This coastal environment is characterized by significant hydrological features, including the Pingorarok Pass, which serves as a critical breach in the barrier system. Inland, the hydrology is dominated by the meandering paths of the Nokotlek River and the Ongorakvik River, which drain through the tundra toward the coast. Coastal landmarks like Nokotlek Point and Niyat Point provide essential reference points along this shifting shoreline. The map illustrates the complex drainage patterns of a region where the land and sea are in constant flux, shaped by the freeze-thaw cycles and maritime influences of the far north.
