Jonesport and West Jonesport anchor this coastal survey, where the intricate geography of the Downeast shoreline is revealed through a network of islands and interconnected waterways. The Beals Island Bridge provides the vital link across Moosabec Reach to the community of Beals, illustrating the maritime-dependent character of the region. This area is defined by its deep saltwater inlets and rocky outcroppings, from the expansive Mason Bay in the north to the outer reaches of Roque Island and Great Spruce Island. Inland, small settlements like Monsapec are connected by local routes such as Mason Bay Rd and Blueberry Shores Rd, which follow the contours of hills like Gay Hill. The map meticulously records the many ledges and bars that dictate navigation in these waters, including Great Bar and Cummings Ledge.
