1955 Map of Monhegan

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Monhegan Island and its smaller neighbor Manana Island anchor this mid-century maritime survey of the outer reaches of Muscongus Bay. In 1955, the small settlement of Monhegan serves as the heart of this rocky outpost, where a Lighthouse and U S Coast Guard Reservation stand watch over the Atlantic Ocean. The map reveals a landscape defined by navigation and survival, from the sheltered Monhegan Harbor to the formidable cliffs of Black Head and White Head.
