2011 Map of Drisko Island
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Drisko Island and its smaller counterpart, Little Drisko Island, sit at the heart of this maritime survey where Western Bay meets the open Gulf of Maine. The map documents a complex coastal archipelago defined by numerous named hazards and landforms, from Marsh Island and Tibbett Island in the north to the isolated Egg Rock in the east. The density of named ledges, such as Drown Boys Ledges, Stanley Ledge, and Batson Ledges, underscores the intricate navigational requirements of these Maine waters. These features, along with Seahorse Rock and Black Rock, provide essential geographic markers for those studying the maritime history and land-naming traditions of Atlantic Ocean coastal communities.
