1994 Map of Megantic

About this map

The Canadian Pacific railway cuts through the dense timberlands of northwestern Somerset County, Maine, defining a landscape shaped by remote outposts and an intricate network of glacial lakes. In the early 1990s, Jackman served as the primary hub for this region, situated near the confluence of Wood Pond and the Moose River. The map highlights the sparse settlement pattern of the Maine North Woods, where small communities like Dennistown and Lowelltown provide access to the vast interior. This map also marks the international border, including the Port of Entry on Route 201, which connects this region to Quebec. The terrain is dominated by prominent peaks such as Attean Mountain and Sally Mountain, which overlook a series of interconnected water bodies including Attean Pond, Holeb Pond, and Long Pond, reflecting a landscape heavily utilized for both timber transport and recreational access.
