1949 Map of Moose River

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Grand Manan Channel dominates the coastal landscape of Washington County, where the rocky Downeast shoreline meets the Atlantic. This mid-century survey reveals a sparsely developed maritime environment, anchored by the Moose River School near the mouth of its namesake waterway. The complex coastline is defined by prominent features such as Eastern Head and the nearby Little Moose Island, while protected inlets like Moose Cove and Bog Brook Cove suggest the traditional harborages of the region. The map captures a moment when topography was derived from 1946 aerial photography, contrasting with older hydrographic data from 1886. Inland, the presence of Norse Pond and the winding course of Bog Brook illustrate the transition from freshwater drainage to the tidal influences of the bay.
