1958 Map of Cape Vincent South

About this map

The St Lawrence River meets Lake Ontario at the head of the Great Lakes system, forming a complex coastline of deep bays and prominent headlands. At the northwestern tip, the Tibbetts Point Lighthouse stands watch over the transition from open water to the river channel. The landscape is defined by its maritime and agricultural heritage, featuring inland hamlets like Rosiere and rural crossroads such as Bedford Corners and Ponds Corners. The shoreline is heavily indented by Wilson Bay, Mud Bay, and Chaumont Bay, creating a geography where land and water are constantly entwined.
