I could be wrong, but I think that area of the “bird’s neck” is a fairly populated area.

‘Scuse me. I just saw a closer map. That is the top of the “bird’s head” and yes, it is fairly well populated.

You are correct - my old stomping grounds back in the 70s - oil exploration.

The Dutch developed the area prior to WWII.

Babo - town and airfield - just south of ground zero on the south side of the large inlet bay was an important Japanese airfield.

Very rough country - but beautiful and yes populated mostly along the shore in this area.
