1986 Map of Kenai B-1 NW

About this map

The rugged terrain of the Kenai Peninsula Borough is defined by a series of isolated freshwater bodies, including WL-72t, wl87t, and WL-120t, which dot the northern landscape. This 1986 provisional survey documents a region primarily utilized for recreation and resource extraction, where high points like Henton 478 and Ridley 432 watch over a network of primitive access routes. The map records several established Campgrounds and multiple Boat Ramps, indicating the importance of these lakes for local navigation and subsistence. To the southeast, a lone Cabin sits at the terminus of a trail system, while a Gravel Pit near the western margin provides evidence of small-scale industrial activity. The presence of a Pack Trail and Foot Trail underscores the limited vehicular reach in this part of Alaska during the mid-1980s, preserving a record of a landscape still largely navigated by traditional means.
