2014 Map of Hewett Island OE S

About this map

Hog Island and The Nubble sit at the northern edge of this coastal survey, marking some of the final terrestrial points of Knox County before the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. This map documents a largely maritime area in 2014, where the waters of the Atlantic dominate the landscape. The county boundary for Knox County, Maine is depicted extending out into the sea, illustrating the jurisdictional reaches of the state's island plantations and coastal territories. While the map is primarily water, these small landforms serve as critical navigational markers and geodetic reference points for the waters surrounding Matinicus Isle.
