1995 Map of Seward B-6

About this map

Chugach National Forest land dominates this high-altitude landscape of the Kenai Peninsula, where the retreat of massive ice fields is the primary driver of the terrain. The presence of the Mother Goose Glacier, Seward Glacier, and Wolverine Glacier alongside the newer Ellsworth Glacier illustrates a dynamic glacial environment at the end of the twentieth century. Human activity is sparse but notable, marked by isolated structures like the Lower Paradise Lake Cabin (FS) and Upper Paradise Lake Cabin (FS) within the Paradise Valley. Evidence of earlier resource exploration persists in the form of unnamed Prospects located near Falls Creek, while the Snow River and its associated Snow River Pass suggest the traditional corridors used to navigate this mountainous interior. The presence of a Gaging Station and various Cabins further indicates the ongoing scientific and recreational management of these protected lands.
