1984 Map of Seward D-6 NE

About this map

Chugach National Forest dominates this Alaskan landscape during the mid-1970s and early 1980s, revealing a terrain defined by massive glaciation and dramatic elevation changes. The map documents the northern reaches of Turnagain Arm where the salt water meets the mountain drainage systems of Peterson Creek and Kern Creek. Higher elevations are marked by the prominent peak of Mount Alyeska, a landmark that serves as a focal point for the region's geography. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, showing how the Twentymile River and smaller tributaries like Winner Creek carve through the high country. From the coastal mudflats to the alpine rise of Blueberry Hill, this provisional survey records the natural boundaries and physical features of the Kenai Peninsula hinterland before later development and environmental shifts.
