1953 Map of Blying Sound

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Harding Icefield dominates the western interior of this coastal survey, serving as the massive source for the Aialik Glacier, Pederson Glacier, and Holgate Glacier. These ice flows carve deep into the Kenai Mountains, creating the dramatic fjords of Aialik Bay and Harris Bay. The map captures the intricate shoreline of the Kenai Peninsula at a time when these glacial systems and their terminal moraines dictated the maritime access points to the region's interior.
