1986 Map of Kenai D-1 NE

About this map

Kenai National Wildlife Refuge dominates the landscape of this 1986 survey, illustrating a coastal wilderness defined by the dynamic relationship between the land and the sea. The map documents the shifting shoreline where the Chickaloon River meets the expansive Chickaloon Bay, a region characterized by intricate tidal flats and marshy lowlands. To the north, the waters of Turnagain Arm reach into the peninsula, while inland drainage is marked by smaller waterways like Pincher Creek. The notation that the boundary follows the shoreline emphasizes the fluid nature of this environment, where land and water are constantly renegotiated by the tides. This provisional study, based on 1970s aerial photography, captures the natural state of the northern Kenai Peninsula before modern development or major ecological shifts altered its primary watercourses.
