2017 Map of Blying Sound C-8 NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Harris Bay and the dramatic coastline of the Kenai Peninsula dominate this coastal survey. The map details a complex network of glacial waterways and protected lands, where the Kenai Fjords National Park meets the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. Notable marine features include the expansive Northwestern Fiord and Northwestern Lagoon, which separate several mountainous landmasses. The southern reaches of the map extend into the Pacific Ocean, punctuated by deep-water inlets such as Crater Bay, Sandy Bay, and the uniquely enclosed Taz Basin. These features document a wilderness landscape where land and sea are intricately bound by glacial activity and conservation management. Local landmarks like Harris Point and Cup Cove serve as essential reference points along this uninhabited, maritime-dominated frontier.
