2018 Map of Iliamna C-3 SE

About this map

Pacific Ocean waters meet the steep shoreline of the Chigmit Mountains in this coastal Alaskan study. The terrain is dominated by high-elevation ridges and deep valleys, characterized by prominent landmarks like The Cone, which rises sharply near the coast. Along the eastern edge of the sheet, the sheltered waters of Ursus Cove provide a break in the exposed coastline. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by glacial activity and marine influence, documented through precise contour intervals that trace the transition from sea level to the high peaks of the Kenai Peninsula. This uninhabited stretch of coast reflects the wilderness character of the region, where the primary features are defined by geology and the tides of the north Pacific.
