1951 Map of Kenai A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Harding Ice Field dominates this corner of the Kenai Peninsula, where massive glacial flows and high-altitude ice define the landscape during the early 1950s. This survey, compiled from 1950 aerial photography, provides a detailed view of the Kenai National Moose Range before significant modern development altered the region. The map tracks the descent of the Skilak Glacier and the Killey Glacier, highlighting the extensive crevasses that mark these moving ice bodies. Along the northern edge, the Killey River cuts through the terrain, fed by glacial runoff and the isolated Iceberg Lake. The presence of the Seward Base Line serves as a critical surveying anchor for these largely unsurveyed and unmarked lands, which at the time were primarily under the management of the Bureau of Land Management.
