2024 Map of Mars Hill

About this map

Mars Hill rises prominently above the surrounding agricultural landscape of eastern Aroostook County, serving as a landmark for the adjacent settlements of Mars Hill and Blaine. This modern topographic study reveals a terrain shaped by water, with Prestile Stream and River de Chute winding through the lowlands alongside numerous water bodies such as McPherson Lake, Brown Lake, and Safford Pond. The map documents the international border with Canada to the east and the local infrastructure supporting these rural communities. Researchers will find interest in the documented locations of Kings Grove Cem and Pierce Cem, which sit alongside historic road corridors like Military Rd and Fort St. The layout of the area reflects a deep-rooted connection between the highland topography and the network of local roads that serve the outlying farms and the Mars Hill Airport.
