2018 Map of Blying Sound D-4 NW

About this map

Kenai Peninsula dominates this coastal survey, where the southernmost reaches of the Chugach National Forest meet the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean. This isolated landscape is defined by the sharp transition from mountainous interior terrain to the jagged coastline of Puget Bay and Cape Puget. Most of the land shown is protected as part of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, indicating an environment largely untouched by modern development. The cartography reveals a wilderness of steep contours and coastal inlets, where the only boundaries are those of the national forest and the vast Gulf of Alaska. Near the eastern edge, the waters of Port Bainbridge underscore the maritime significance of this remote Alaskan territory.
