About this map

Houlton serves as the focal point of this Aroostook County survey, where the Bangor and Aroostook and Canadian Pacific railroads converge near the international border. The landscape is defined by the winding Meduxnekeag River and its numerous tributaries, supporting a mix of agricultural settlements and specialized infrastructure. Distinctive landmarks of the early Cold War era include a Transoceanic Telephone Receiving Station and a Radio Range Station located just west of the border line.
