About this map

Gulf of Alaska waters meet the rugged shoreline of the Kenai Peninsula in this modern survey, where the Pacific Ocean dominates the eastern half of the sheet. The coastal landscape is defined by its drainage systems, including Katchin Cr and the meandering path of Harriet Cr, which flows toward the tidal flats of Redoubt Bay. Further inland, the terrain is dotted with isolated water bodies such as Bear Lake and Wadell Lake, set against a backdrop of complex contour lines that indicate the varied elevation of the Alaskan wilderness.

A notable landmark on the coast, Redoubt Astro, serves as a point of reference near the northern reaches of the shore. The surveyor's grid, including t4n r18w and t4n r17w, provides a framework for understanding the vast, uninhabited stretches where Redoubt Creek cuts through the southern section of the quadrangle. This map documents a largely untouched maritime environment, emphasizing the natural hydrography and topographical features of the region.
