2011 Map of Landry

About this map

Beau Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape along the international border between Maine and Quebec. The map illustrates a largely uninhabited wilderness where the waters of Jones Brook flow southward toward the lake, carving a path through the northern forest. Published by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2011, this survey provides a precise look at the hydrology of Big Twenty Township. The absence of roads or structures on this sheet underscores the isolation of the St. John River headwaters region, a territory historically shaped by the timber industry and the shifting lines of border diplomacy.
