1932 Map of Franconia

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

Franconia and the high peaks of the White Mountain National Forest dominate this landscape, which was surveyed just before the early 1930s. The region is defined by the deep gorge of Franconia Notch, where the Daniel Webster Highway winds past iconic geological features like Profile Lake and The Basin. This era shows a fascinating transition in mountain tourism and industry; while the Appalachian Trail and the Aerial Tramway cater to growing numbers of hikers and sightseers, the valleys still hum with commercial activity.
