1951 Map of Iliamna A-3

About this map

Kamishak Bay dominates the northern half of this 1951 aerial survey, where the deep waters of the Cook Inlet transition into a complex coastal environment. Along the southern shoreline, the topography rises sharply from the sea, characterized by steep elevations and the mouth of the Douglas River. This area is defined by its dramatic tidal fluctuations, leaving extensive Tidal Flats exposed between the mainland and the open bay.
