About this map

Jackman serves as the focal point for this late 20th-century survey of the Maine North Woods, where the Canadian Pacific railroad tracks trace the southern edge of town near the shores of Wood Pond. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling waters of Little Big Wood Pond and Crocker Pond, reflecting a region deeply tied to timber and recreation. Local industry and infrastructure are noted through features like the Gravel Pit near Dennistown and the Sky Lodge Landing Strip further east.

Small clusters of activity appear at Moose River and Dyerville, while the surrounding terrain rises sharply toward Slidedown Mountain and Burnt Jacket Mountain. The map details a network of private roads and trails that penetrate the forest, leading to remote points like Foxs Camp and Sugar Berth Pond. This record captures the boundary of Dennistown Plt during a period of transition, documenting the established settlement patterns before further modernization.
