About this map

Chukchi Sea waters meet the northwestern edge of the Arctic coast at Icy Cape, a prominent landform defining this maritime landscape. The map details a complex system of barrier islands and inlets, including Icy Cape Pass, which provides access to the sheltered Kasegaluk Lagoon. This area of the Alaska North Slope Borough is characterized by its low-lying coastal tundra and strategic aviation infrastructure. The presence of the Icy Cape AFS Airport highlights the remote region's history with defense and communication networks. Farther offshore, the submerged hazards of Blossom Shoals are noted, illustrating the navigational challenges inherent to these northern waters.
