1951 Map of Tyonek A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Fire Island sits at the convergence of Cook Inlet, Knik Arm, and Turnagain Arm, serving as a critical navigational waypoint in this 1951 survey. The island is defined by its Moose Range and essential maritime aids like Fire Island Light and Race Point Light, with a Landing Strip providing air access to the interior. Across the water, the Point Campbell Military Reservation occupies the strategic headland near Pt Woronzof and Point Campbell. To the south, across Chickaloon Bay, the map captures the northern edge of the Kenai National Moose Range at Pt Possession. This geography highlights the early Cold War era military and logistical footprint around what would become Alaska's primary urban center, emphasizing the vast mud and sand flats of the Susitna Flats that dominate the upper inlet shoreline.
