About this map

The Meduxnekeag River meanders northward from Houlton, anchoring a landscape defined by Aroostook County's agricultural traditions and its proximity to the New Brunswick border. Settlement is concentrated in the southern town of Houlton and the village of Littleton, with the rural crossing at Starkey Corners further north. This modern survey reflects the persistent grid of farm-to-market roads, such as Station Rd and Foxcroft Rd, which connect remote lake sites like Monson Lake and Carry Lake to the primary transportation corridors.

Transportation remains a central theme, from the historic Watson Settlement Bridge to the expansive grounds of the Houlton International Airport. The topography is punctuated by prominent rises like Garrison Hill, while numerous watercourses including Big Brook and the uniquely named B Stream drain the surrounding fields. The map captures the area just as the digital era of cartography fully integrated local landmarks with precise modern positioning.
