1949 Map of Jackman

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The Canadian Pacific railroad cuts through this borderlands landscape, connecting the industrial centers of Quebec with the timberlands of Northern Maine. Compiled in the late 1940s, this survey documents the complex international boundary where the Eastern Townships meet the High Peaks region. The Salmon River and Chaudiere River drainage systems define the northern terrain, while the southern portion is dominated by the massive profiles of Bigelow Mountain and Sugarloaf Mt. Significant water bodies like Lake Megantic, Flagstaff Lake, and the First Connecticut Lake serve as anchors for the scattered settlements of Megantic, Woburn, and Beecher Falls. This map illustrates the transition from the relatively dense agricultural and railway villages of Quebec, such as St Evariste Station, to the more mountainous, stream-cut forests of Somerset and Franklin counties.
