1951 Map of Blying Sound

About this map

The Kenai Mountains dominate this 1951 study of the Alaskan coastline, where the massive Harding Ice Field feeds a series of tidewater glaciers including the Aialik Glacier, Holgate Glacier, and Bear Glacier. This reconnaissance-level survey documents the intricate fjords and coastal islands before the massive tectonic shifts of the 1964 earthquake. Along the eastern reaches, the map captures the southern extent of Chugach National Forest across Montague Island and the maritime approaches of Montague Strait.
