We present a new reconnaissance geologic map of the southeastern part of the Kenai quadrangle that improves on previously published maps. Melange of the McHugh Complex is now known to form a continuous strike belt that can be traced from the Seldovia to the Valdez quadrangle; a problematic 75-km-long gap in the McHugh Complex in the Kenai and Seldovia quadrangles does not exist. An Eocene near-trench pluton underlies a range of nunataks in Harding Icefield.
