1995 Map of Cold Bay A-3

About this map

Cold Bay serves as the primary outpost on this mid-1990s survey of the western Alaska Peninsula. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Izembek National Wildlife Refuge and the designated Izembek Wilderness, where the coastal environment transitions from the tidal flats of Izembek Lagoon to the high reaches of Frosty Peak Glacier. Commercial and technical infrastructure of the era is evidenced by a quarry, a series of tanks, and the Satellite Triang Station 125 near the coast. Water features are abundant across the tundra, including Rescue Lake, Blue Bill Lake, and Simeon Lake, while the southern coastline is defined by Littlejohn Lagoon and Morzhovoi Bay. This map documents a critical maritime and ecological crossroads where the Bering Sea meets the North Pacific via the peninsula's narrow land bridge.
