Point Possession anchors the southwestern portion of this map, marking a critical geographic junction where the mainland of the Kenai Peninsula meets the waters of the Pacific Ocean. This coastal landscape is defined by its transition from the tidal flats and salt marshes of the shoreline to the inland presence of Diamond Lake. The map illustrates a significant administrative boundary dividing the Anchorage Municipality and Kenai Peninsula Borough, which cuts diagonally across the marine waters. To the north, the southern tip of Fire Island is visible, highlighting the strategic maritime position of this area at the entrance to Upper Cook Inlet. The cartography emphasizes the interplay between these large-scale jurisdictional lines and the natural coastal features that have long shaped navigation and land use in this part of Alaska.
