Traces of early human settlement are still found in this arctic wilderness, where is just off the mainland near the Alaskan border. The very thick permafrost on this land can not suppress the growth of rare arctic flowers and plants.

Increasingly melting ice as global warming means there will be less protection from coastal storms and erosion.
