About this map

Camden and Rockport anchor this coastal portrait of Knox County, where the mountains of the Camden Hills meet the Atlantic. The landscape is defined by the steep rises of Mt Megunticook, Mt Battie, and Bald Mtn, creating a dramatic backdrop for the harbors at Sherman Cove and Camden Harbor. Inland, the terrain is dotted with significant freshwater bodies like Megunticook Lake and Chickawaukie Pond, connected by the winding path of the Goose River.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented through numerous burial grounds, including Mt View Cem, Oak Hill Cem, and the Amesbury Cem. The map captures the specialized infrastructure of the Midcoast region, from the Tannery Lane Footbridge to the Bald Mountain Airport. The coastline is exceptionally detailed, noting navigation hazards and landmarks such as Curtis Island, The Graves, and Porterfield Ledge, illustrating the maritime character of the Glen Cove and Rockville areas.
