Abstract

Favorable ice conditions in 1951 and 1957 allowed echo-sounding across the continental slope and into the deep basin north of Pt. Barrow, where a relatively smooth sea-floor between 2000 and 2100 fm deep was found. North-northwest of Pt. Barrow lies a continental borderland area containing a detached ridge 100 miles long with a steep (23°) southeast flank.
