Washaqua Hill stands as a prominent elevation overlooking the complex coastal barrier systems of Chappaquiddick during this 2012 survey. The landscape is defined by the narrow, shifting connection of Norton Point separating Katama Bay from the Atlantic Ocean. This era shows a network of local thoroughfares such as Old Indian Trl and Pocha Rd providing access to the more secluded reaches of the island. Significant maritime hazards and landforms shape the eastern edge of the quadrangle, including the submerged Mutton Shoal and the notable Dike Bridge crossing near Pocha Pond. The map serves as a precise record of the shoreline configuration at Wasque Point and the exposed stretch of East Beach before subsequent seasonal erosion and tidal shifts altered these sensitive landforms.
