2018 Map of Hardwood Mountain SW OE W

About this map

The international border between Canada and the United States defines the southeastern corner of this landscape in Somerset County, Maine. Set within a territory characterized by extensive hydrography, the map details numerous unnamed streams and wetlands that form the headwaters of the regional drainage system. The terrain is sparsely developed, with the primary human footprint being the geopolitical boundary itself. This 2018 survey serves as a modern record of the natural topography and the legal line demarcating the frontier between Maine and Quebec. While the interior is dominated by a complex network of water bodies and marshlands, the demarcated Canada-USA border provides the singular point of reference for researchers and local historians studying the international boundary line in this northern reach.
