About this map

The Androscoggin River carves a deep valley through this northern New Hampshire landscape, serving as the primary corridor for transportation and settlement in the early 1930s. Along its banks, the Grand Trunk railroad follows the water's path, connecting the village of Milan with northern outposts. The rural character of the area is underscored by a network of one-room schoolhouses scattered across the hills, including Jewett Sch, Willis Sch, and Milan Hill Sch.

In the eastern reaches, the high ridges of the Mahoosuc Range and Cambridge Black MTN dominate the horizon, where hiking trails like the Carlo Col Trail begin to appear. Near the southern edge of the survey, the Berlin Landing Field indicates the early development of aviation infrastructure in Coos County, while a Fire Tower atop Milan Hill overlooks the surrounding timberlands of Success and Cambridge.
