1993 Map of Cross Island

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Cross Island National Wildlife Refuge dominates this coastal survey, encompassing several island landmasses where the Gulf of Maine meets Machias Bay. The landscape is defined by its maritime isolation, showing the rugged contours of Cross Island and the smaller Stone Island and Libby Islands to the southwest. On the eastern edge of the bay, the presence of the US Naval Communication Unit near Thornton Point indicates the area's strategic coastal significance during the late twentieth century. Navigational landmarks like the Lighthouse on the southern reach of the Libby Islands serve as critical guides for the Cross Island Narrows. The map details various coves and ledges, including Seal Cove and Seashore Ledge, which characterize this segment of the Washington County shoreline near Cutler.
