Icy Cape

The Icy Cape is a headland on the Chukchi Sea side of the North Slope Borough, Alaska, United States.

It was discovered and named by James Cook on August 17, 1778, on account of the ice along the coast.

[1][2] Icy Cape is in an area of landspits, bounded by Kasegaluk Lagoon to the east and Sikolik Lake further inland.

Pink salmon and Arctic char are abundant in the waters near Icy Cape.

[3] Icy Cape is the setting for "Ice", an episode of the first season of the American television series The X-Files.
