About this map

Fox Island and the rugged shores of the Resurrection Peninsula dominate this coastal survey of the Kenai Peninsula. Managed largely within the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge and Chugach National Forest, the terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation changes where the Pacific Ocean meets the coastline. Maritime traffic routes are indicated by the Alaska Marine Hwy, which threads through these deep waters, connecting remote coves and points. Significant geographic features such as Caines Head, Porcupine Glacier, and the narrow passage at Eldorado Narrows define the navigation of these waters. Smaller landmarks like Sunny Cove, Humpy Cove, and The Iron Door reflect the complex coastline of islands and inlets that have long served as refuge and waypoint for travelers in this part of Alaska.
