1951 Map of Seward C-8

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Resurrection Pass Trail serves as the central artery through this portion of the Kenai Mountains, tracing a historic corridor through the Chugach National Forest. The map documents the high alpine passes and interconnected water systems of the interior peninsula during the early 1950s, a period prior to extensive modern development in the region. Notable elevations like Langille Mountain and Gilpatrick Mountain overlook a complex network of drainage basins, including the headwaters of the Chickaloon River and Resurrection Creek. This survey captures the specific locations of several remote cabins and landmarks along the trail system, such as Devils Pass Lake and Juneau Lake. In the southeast corner, the early alignment of the Sterling Highway follows the course of Quartz Creek, providing a stark contrast between the developing road infrastructure and the roadless wilderness of the interior peaks.
