1958 Map of Kenai B-8

About this map

Redoubt Volcano dominates the northern landscape of this survey, standing as a primary landmark above the complex glacial and river systems of the western Kenai Peninsula. The drainage patterns of the North Fork and Crescent River illustrate a dynamic mountain environment where water moves from high alpine elevations down toward the coast. The central portion of the map is occupied by Crescent Lake, a significant inland water body fed by mountain runoff. Further south, the Tuxedni River terminates at a broad Tidal Flat, indicating the transition to a coastal maritime environment. This document reflects the mid-century mapping of unsurveyed and unmarked land lines, pre-determined by the Bureau of Land Management for the Seward Meridian.
