1954 Map of Iliamna B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Kamishak Bay and the coastal reaches of the Kenai Peninsula Borough define this mid-century topographic survey, where the rugged shoreline of Bruin Bay meets the waters of Cook Inlet. The landscape is dominated by coastal elevations like Big Hill and the prominent Step Mountain, which rises above Fortification Bluff. Inland, the drainage pattern is anchored by Kirschner Lake and its associated Falls, while the northern portion of the sheet captures a section of Kakhonak Lake. This map represents the area as it was recorded during aerial photography in the late 1950s, showing a wilderness terrain completely devoid of roads or trails. The intricate shoreline features significant Tidal Flats and sharp geographical markers such as Contact Point, providing a detailed look at the maritime geography before modern development or environmental shifts altered these remote Alaskan reaches.
