1958 Map of Kenai B-8

About this map

Redoubt Volcano dominates the northern reaches of this coastal Alaskan landscape, overlooking a series of glacial drainages and isolated lakes. This late-1950s survey captures the area before modern infrastructure arrived, showing a wilderness defined by the North Fork Lake and the expansive Crescent Lake. The hydrological network is the primary feature of interest, with the Crescent River winding through narrow valleys toward the coast. To the south, the Tuxedni River empties into a broad Tidal Flat, illustrating the dynamic interface between mountain runoff and the Cook Inlet tides. This sheet preserves the land lines as unsurveyed and unmarked locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, reflecting the raw state of the territory during its early statehood transition.
