About this map

Machias Bay dominates this coastal landscape, where the jagged Maine shoreline is defined by deep inlets like Great Pond Cove and Little Machias Bay. The settlement of North Cutler sits near the eastern edge, while the interior rises to elevations such as Woodruff Mtn and Enoch Hill. A network of local roads including Cutler Rd and Ridge Rd connects the maritime community to inland features like Gardner Lake and Holmes Pond.

Maritime history and family roots are evident in the naming of landmarks like Jasper Beach and Sprague Neck. The map identifies localized features such as the Look Cem and Cutler Regional Airport, providing a clear look at how the region's infrastructure interacts with its challenging geography. The presence of numerous islands, including Hog Island and Round Island, highlights the intricate navigation through Cross Island Narrows.
