About this map

Harding Icefield dominates the western interior of this coastal reach, serving as the source for massive ice flows like Aialik Glacier, Holgate Glacier, and Bear Glacier. The map illustrates the complex coastline of the Kenai Peninsula Borough as it stood in the mid-20th century, reaching from the deep waters of Resurrection Bay to the eastern expanse of Montague Island. The geography is defined by narrow waterways and isolated landforms such as Aialik Island and Rugged Island.
