Alaska’s Arctic slope

From Point Barrow east towards the Canadian frontier, this sheet spans Alaska’s exposed Arctic coast and the Beaufort Sea. Offshore water, barrier islands, lagoons and broad river deltas give way inland to treeless tundra and the foothills of the Brooks Range. Farther south, the range introduces a markedly more rugged landscape, making the sheet a compact view of the transition from Arctic coastal plain to mountain terrain.

Connections with adjoining sheets

Westbound routes continue onto Cape Lisburne or Nome, depending on their track, while Fairbanks adjoins to the south-west for journeys crossing beyond the Brooks Range. Dawson takes over at the eastern edge, covering onward travel towards northern Yukon. Together, these joins make Point Barrow the central sheet for routes following Alaska’s North Slope or turning between the Arctic coast and the interior.

Common questions

What area does the Point Barrow Sectional Chart cover?

It spans 67.4°N to 72.3°N and 159.6°W to 139.1°W. Airports on the sheet fall within Alaska. The full list of public-use airports within its coverage is on this page.

Should I download the GeoTIFF or the PDF?

Take the GeoTIFF if you are loading the chart into moving-map software or a flight planner — it is georeferenced, so the software can place it correctly on a map, and it ships with a world file and FGDC metadata at 300 dpi (51.4 MB). Take the PDF to print it or read it on a second screen (112.0 MB); it is the same chart without georeferencing.

Is this the current Point Barrow chart?

This is the FAA edition effective 9 July 2026, which is superseded on 3 September 2026. Visual charts are reissued every 56 days and we publish each new edition on the day it takes effect. It is for flight simulation and reference only — not for real-world navigation.

Which charts adjoin the Point Barrow sheet?

Cape Lisburne to the west, Fairbanks to the south-west, Dawson to the east and Nome to the west. Each is linked from this page, so a route running off one edge can be continued on the next sheet.

Is the Point Barrow Sectional Chart free to download?

Yes, with no account required. FAA charts are United States Government works and are not subject to copyright protection in the US under 17 U.S.C. § 105. Guest downloads are speed-capped, so a sheet this size takes a while; PRO members download at full line speed and can take the whole family as one archive.
