2019 Map of Mount Katmai D-1 SW

About this map

Katmai National Park encompasses the vast majority of this 2019 survey, protecting a wild landscape of steep ridgelines and glacial valleys. The terrain is defined by the northward flow of the Kamishak River, which is joined by the South Fork Kamishak River as they carve through the northeastern portion of the quadrangle. This area remains largely devoid of modern infrastructure or permanent settlements, preserving a wilderness character that reflects the federal land management priorities of the Kenai Peninsula Borough's western reaches. The map's contour lines illustrate the sharp elevation changes between the river basin and the high peaks, providing a clear view of the hydrological patterns within this protected coastal watershed.
