About this map

Mt Abraham dominates the northern skyline of this Franklin County landscape, its high ridges traversed by the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. To the south, the settlement of Salem sits along the W Br Carrabassett River, serving as a focal point for local roads such as Salem Rd and Howard Rd. The terrain is defined by a series of significant peaks and waterways, including Farmer Mtn, Lone Mtn, and the winding Rapid Stream.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the location of the Mount Abraham Cem and the small settlement of Barnjum. The map provides a clear look at the network of rural routes like Fish Hatchery Rd and Bray Hill Rd that connect the isolated hills of Bray Hill and Tory Hill to the river valley. This 2021 topographic record from the U.S. Geological Survey documents the enduring rural character of the Maine woods.
