1952 Map of Kenai D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Kenai National Moose Range dominates the interior landscape of this early 1950s survey, revealing a complex network of wetlands and small lakes that define the peninsula's hydrology. The coast along Cook Inlet is marked by expansive Tidal Flats and notable geological markers like Gray Cliff. Remote human presence is recorded sparingly through isolated structures, including a Cabin near the mouth of the Swanson River and a Cabin (Aban'd) further north along the shore. This period of mapping captures the region shortly after the establishment of the national moose range, highlighting a wilderness landscape where drainage patterns like Otter Creek and Bishop Creek were the primary landmarks. The presence of Number Three Bay and Birch Hill provides essential orientation points for those studying the mid-century shoreline before modern development.
