1988 Map of Blue Mountain

About this map

Colebrook, Columbia, and Stratford converge in this high-elevation corner of Coos County, where the landscape is defined by steep ridges and narrow mountain passes. The small settlement of Bungy sits in the northeast near the Mohawk River, while the rest of the terrain is a series of named summits and notches. Notable peaks like Blue Mountain and Gore Mountain are separated by deep gaps such as Cleveland Notch and Gore Notch, which dictate the flow of the region's many waterways. The drainage pattern is complex, with Simms Stream and its various branches, including the West Branch, carving through the timbered slopes. Large wetland features like Cranberry Bog Pond and Nash Bog Pond occupy the low basins between the massifs, reflecting the glacially-carved character of this New Hampshire wilderness. The map provides a detailed view of these natural barriers and the few forest roads that navigate the passes.
