About this map

The Grand Manan Channel dominates this coastal view of Washington County, where the terrestrial landscape of Maine meets the open Atlantic Ocean. The geography is defined by prominent coastal points and tidal features, most notably Eastern Head and the nearby Eastern Head Ledges that lie just offshore from Moose Cove. The map details a sparsely settled shoreline where maritime navigation and small coastal roads like Shag Rock Rd and Moose River Rd provide access to the water's edge.

Watercourses such as the Moose River and Bog Brook flow into protected inlets like Bog Brook Cove, illustrating the drainage patterns of this downeast environment. Little Moose Island sits as a distinct landform near the mouth of the river, while Sandy Cove marks the northern extent of this coastal stretch. The absence of major development highlights the maritime focus of the region, where the primary infrastructure consists of local connectors like Dixie Rd and State Route 191.
