1958 Map of Kenai D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Trading Bay and the northern reaches of Cook Inlet dominate this coastal survey, where the massive discharge of glacial river systems meets the sea. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways including the Chakachatna River, Mc Arthur River, and Middle River, which meander through expansive tidal areas known as the Flats. This environment is characterized by shifting Tidal Flats and secondary channels like Cottonwood Slough. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by isolated Cabins and a lone Landing Strip near the coast, suggesting a reliance on bush planes for access. The interior features the Kustatan River winding along a prominent Ridge, with Bunitlana Lake tucked into the western terrain, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Kenai Peninsula's western shore before significant modern development.
