About this map

Glacial terrain and lacustrine systems dominate this portion of the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge on the Kenai Peninsula. The landscape is defined by a dense network of water bodies, ranging from the sizeable Hidden Lake and Hikers Lake in the south to the smaller Browse Lake and Picnic Lake further north. These waters are linked by the winding courses of the Moose River and Mystery Creek, reflecting the complex drainage patterns characteristic of this subarctic wilderness.

Human passage through this environment is concentrated along the Sterling Highway, which serves as the primary artery for travel across the southern section. Branching away from the pavement, the unpaved Mystery Creek Road and the Seven Lakes Tr provide limited access to more remote areas like the Kenai Wilderness (Mystery Creek Unit). Notable elevation changes are found at Hideout Hill, which rises above the wetlands and smaller basins like Mox Lake and Chatelain Lake.
