About this map

Acadia National Park dominates this mid-century coastal survey, covering the iconic peaks of Mount Desert and the shoreline of Frenchman Bay. The map documents the intricate island-and-inlet geography of Hancock County, from the high summit of Cadillac Mtn down to the seafaring communities of Bar Harbor and Winter Harbor. Beyond the mainland, the Cranberry Isles are shown in detail, including the settlement of Islesford and several navigational aids.
