About this map

The coastal village of Jonesport and the island community of Beals anchor this 2011 survey of the Downeast shoreline. Separated by the waters of Moosabec Reach, these settlements are defined by their deep connection to the Atlantic, with local infrastructure such as the Beals Island Bridge and Mill Pond Rd providing essential links between the mainland and the nearby islands. The landscape is a complex archipelago including Roque Island, Great Spruce Island, and Pond Cove Island, marking the entrance to Englishman Bay and Chandler Bay.

Evidence of local history and land use is found further inland at the Greenwood Cemetery and the Snare Creek Dam, while the northern reaches of the quadrangle include the settlement of Monsapec. From the prominent Great Head to the tidal stretches of Great Bar, the map documents a maritime environment where rocky ledges like Boundary Ledges and sandy stretches like Sandy River Beach coexist alongside coastal industries and residential clusters.
