1995 Map of Seward A-6

About this map

The Kenai Mountains dominate this 1995 revision of the Kenai Peninsula, showcasing a landscape defined by glacial activity and protected wilderness. Vast ice fields including Seward Glacier, Godwin Glacier, and Ellsworth Glacier carve through the high terrain, feeding into lower elevations and bodies of water like Bear Glacier Lake. This map records the intersection of the Chugach National Forest and the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, illustrating a territory focused on conservation and federal land management. To the south, the deep waters of Day Harbor provide coastal access via Bowen Anchorage and Talus Bay, while the South Fork Snow River drains the northern slopes toward Nellie Juan Lake. This survey is notable for its lack of roads or trails, documenting a purely natural coastal and alpine environment.
