2021 Map of Hardwood Mountain

About this map

Southwest Branch Saint John River winds along the international boundary in this Somerset County survey, marking the topographical division between the United States and Canada. This landscape is defined by the significant rise of Hardwood Mtn, which dominates the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. The terrain here is intersected by Dead Brook and a limited network of timber-access routes, most notably Carter Brook Rd. The map illustrates a remote borderland where the natural hydrology of the Saint John River system dictated the placement of the international frontier, creating a distinct geographical profile of the Maine-Quebec line.
