About this map

Hope sits at the edge of Turnagain Arm in this mid-century survey of the Kenai Peninsula. The settlement marks a transition from the tidal mudflats of Chickaloon Bay to the steep, forested reaches of the Chugach National Forest. Gold mining activity is evident along the drainage of Resurrection Creek, where the Robinson Bowman Mine and Pearson Mine are located alongside visible Tailings. These operations, coupled with the networks of Gold Gulch and Rimrock Creek, illustrate the persistent mineral interest in the region.
