About this map

Lake Francis and the First Connecticut Lake dominate this northern landscape in Pittsburg, where the Connecticut River connects these significant bodies of water. The topography is defined by prominent peaks such as Covell Mtn and Prospect Mtn, with smaller settlements like Happy Corner and The Glen serving as focal points for local habitation and transport. A network of local roads including N Main St and Back Lake Rd links these communities, while landmarks like the Happy Corner Bridge and River Road Bridge span the waterways that crisscross the terrain.

Water is a defining characteristic of the area, from the larger lakes to smaller features like Jacquith Pond, Harris Pond, and Mud Pond. The drainage patterns provided by Perry Stream, Scott Brook, and Labrador Brook highlight the intricate hydrography of the Coos County region. The map also captures the local relief with named features like Spooner Hill, Carr Ridge, and South Mtn, illustrating the varied elevations surrounding the valley settlements.
