2018 Map of Jackman

About this map

Moose River and Dyerville serve as the primary points of settlement in this northern Somerset County landscape, clustered where the water systems of Wood Pond and Little Big Wood Pond converge. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Sandy Stream Mtn and the uniquely named Slidedown Mtn, which overlooks the Slidedown Valley. The map detail follows the historical corridor of the Old Canada Rd, tracing the movement of people and goods through this timber-rich region. Local history is anchored at the Holden Cem near the banks of the Moose River, while aviation history is represented by Newton Field to the south. The drainage network is particularly intricate, featuring the Heald Stream Falls and numerous smaller bodies of water such as Burnt Land Pond and Crocker Pond, illustrating a landscape shaped by glacial activity and a perennial timber economy.
