1952 Map of Kenai B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Kenai National Moose Range dominates this portion of the peninsula, illustrating a landscape managed for conservation in the early 1950s. The northern reaches show the emerging infrastructure of the era, centered around the Sterling Highway and the Seven Mile Trail. Local habitation is sparse, marked primarily by scattered cabins and the Shelters Ranch situated near the Kenai River. The map captures a complex hydrological network where the Skilak Glacier feeds the Skilak River, which in turn flows into the expansive Skilak Lake. Unique geographical features like the Irish Channel near Lucas Island and the isolated Twin Lakes in the southern highlands highlight the glacial character of the terrain. This survey provides an essential look at the Kenai wilderness before modern development altered its accessibility.
