1958 Map of Lime Hills B-1

About this map

Glacial ice and high-altitude drainage systems dominate this remote Alaskan interior within the Kenai Peninsula Borough. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major glacial meltwater systems, including the Chilligan River, Styx River, and the Necons River. Steep-walled valleys and permanent ice fields are prominent, with several locations specifically noting the presence of hazardous crevasses among the high peaks. This 1958 survey, updated with limited revisions in the late 1970s, captures a transition zone where the Igitna River carves through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The lack of any marked roads or trails emphasizes the isolation of this terrain, where movement is dictated entirely by the river corridors and the shifting surface of the ice.
