1994 Map of Calais

About this map

The border communities of Calais and Milltown anchor the eastern edge of this Maine-New Brunswick study, situated where the river network meets the Atlantic influence. This mid-1990s composite reveals a landscape defined by an extensive system of interconnected waterways, including Big Lake, Baskahegan Lake, and Grand Lake, which historically facilitated the region's timber and industrial economy. The mapping shows the Passamaquoddy Indian Reservation situated near Princeton, highlighting the long-standing indigenous presence in the St. Croix watershed. Conservation and land management are prominent, with the Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge protecting significant acreage south of the industrial center at Woodland. Small interior settlements like Grand Lake Stream and Cooper are shown connected by a winding road network through the timberlands, while coastal sites like Red Beach and Robbinston line the river's path toward the sea.
