1951 Map of Seldovia D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The coastal frontier of the Kenai Peninsula is defined by the rugged shoreline of Cook Inlet and the early integration of the Sterling Highway. This 1951 survey reveals the small settlement at Anchor Point, where the Anchor River meets the sea, and further north, the prominent landmark of Cape Starichkof. The landscape is a network of intricate drainages, including Deep Creek, Stariski Creek, and the Chakok River, which flow westward into the inlet. The presence of a dedicated Airstrip at Anchor Point indicates the vital role of aviation in this remote Alaskan territory during the mid-century. Further inland, the map captures the transition from tidal flats near Laida St to the higher elevations surrounding the North Fork Anchor River, documenting the early road infrastructure and survey lines of the Third Judicial Division.
