1950 Map of Seward A-6

About this map

Godwin Glacier and Ellsworth Glacier dominate this mid-century view of the Kenai Mountains, where ice and meltwater shape the landscape of the Chugach National Forest. The geography is defined by high-elevation ice fields and deep coastal incisions, most notably the Resurrection Bay coastline and the Resurrection Peninsula. Extensive crevasses are noted across the glaciers, reflecting the dynamic nature of the terrain at the time of the 1950 aerial surveys.
