2021 Map of Machias Bay

About this map

Bucks Harbor and the surrounding coastal landscape of Washington County are documented in this 2021 survey, illustrating a complex shoreline defined by granite headlands and tidal flats. The interior terrain is shaped by significant elevations such as Woodruff Mtn, Enoch Hill, and Pettegrove Mtn, which overlook a network of freshwater bodies including Gardner Lake and Holmes Pond. Near the coast, the settlement of North Cutler sits at the junction of Ridge Rd and Cutler Rd, while the Mary Look Cem serves as a local genealogical landmark. The maritime environment is exceptionally detailed, showing the intricate relationship between Machias Bay and its many outcroppings, from Sprague Neck and Hog Island to the protective reaches of Avery Rock and Salt Island. This modern topographic study preserves the naming of specific beaches like Jasper Beach and Davis Beach, alongside the operational footprint of the Cutler Regional Airport.
