2015 Map of Lake Francis

About this map

Lake Francis dominates the lower half of this northern New Hampshire landscape, where the Connecticut River flows through a series of significant water bodies and mountain ridges. The settlement of Happy Corner serves as a local landmark near the Happy Corner Bridge, while The Glen sits at the northern edge of First Connecticut Lake. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks including Prospect Mtn, South Mtn, and Bear Mtn, with smaller water features like Back Lake and Jacquith Pond scattered throughout the drainage basins. A network of local roads such as Moose Pond Rd and Back Lake Rd provides access to the shoreline and higher elevations. This modern survey captures the region's managed hydrography and recreation-focused geography, illustrating how the river system and its various ponded reaches structure the northern Coos County environment.
