Nugnugaluktuk River

The Nugnugaluktuk River is a stream, 26 miles (42 km) long, on the Seward Peninsula in the U.S. state of Alaska.^[1] It flows east from within the Nome Census Area to Goodhope Bay, about 37 miles (60 km) northwest of Deering in the Northwest Arctic Borough.^[1] The bay is on Kotzebue Sound of the Chukchi Sea.^[1] The entire course of the river lies within the Bering Land Bridge National Preserve.^[2]

The river's assigned name comes from the Inuit, as reported in 1903. In 1998, the Inupiat name was recorded as Liglignaqtuugvik.^[1]
