About this map

Funny River winds through the heart of this Kenai Peninsula landscape, serving as a primary drainage for the surrounding highlands. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal and perennial streams including Bear Cr, Moose Cr, and Indian Cr, which carve through the elevations of t2n r7w and t1n r7w. To the southwest, Lake Emma sits near the base of the rising topography, providing a distinct water feature amidst the wetlands and forested slopes.

Evidence of human movement through this backcountry is preserved in the Moose Creek Trail, which provides access across the central section of the quadrangle. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey uses data from the National Hydrography Dataset and National Elevation Dataset to document the hydrologic patterns and elevation contours that dictate the layout of this section of the Alaska wilderness.
