1896 Map of Crawford Notch

USGS Topo · Published 1914

About this map

Crawford Notch serves as the focal point for this late 19th-century topographic study, capturing the rugged interior of the White Mountains during a period of expanding recreational tourism and industrial logging. The legendary Crawford House and Willey House stand as primary landmarks along the upper Saco River, marking the historical path through the mountains. To the south, the settlement of Livermore represents the era's timber industry, evidenced by the Lumber R. R. winding through the valley. The presence of the Maine Central R. R. underscores the region's importance as a transportation corridor connecting mountain communities like Bartlett to the wider New England network. Beyond the rails, the map reveals a dense network of high-elevation features, including Zealand Notch, the Bethlehem Mountains, and numerous cascades such as Flume Cascade and Silver Cascade.
