1983 Map of Johns Island

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Johns I sits at the heart of this coastal Maine survey, surrounded by the rocky outcroppings and scattered archipelagos of the Southwest Approach. The landscape is defined by the proximity of Acadia National Park on Heron I, emphasizing the preserved and maritime character of Hancock County in the early 1980s. To the northwest, Marshall Island features distinct coastal formations like Pobblestone Cove and Devils Head, while the waters of Toothacher Bay separate it from the larger landmass of Swans Island. The eastern edge of the map includes portions of Frenchboro on Long I, where Steamboat Beach provides a named landmark along the Atlantic shoreline. This maritime network of ledges, rocks, and small islands illustrates the intricate navigational hazards and small-scale geographic features vital to local sailors and coastal history researchers.
