1954 Map of Iliamna B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Kamishak Bay and Bruin Bay dominate this coastal survey of the Kenai Peninsula, showcasing a landscape defined by dramatic shorelines and tidal reaches. A solitary Cabin marks the human presence near Contact Point, indicating the seasonal or subsistence-based lifestyle of the mid-20th century in this portion of Alaska. The interior terrain is characterized by significant elevations such as Step Mountain and Big Hill, which overlook a network of freshwater bodies including Kakhonak Lake and Kirschner Lake. The presence of Falls near the outlet of Kirschner Lake suggests a steep transition between the interior highlands and the coastal flats. Notable geological features like Fortification Bluff and the drainage of Sunday Creek highlight the drainage patterns and coastal erosion typical of this era, prior to modern development or increased accessibility.
