About this map

Mount Cardigan and the surrounding high country of Grafton County define this topographical study, where the peaks of Mowglis Mountain and Orange Mountain create a formidable landscape. The settlement of Orange sits south of the prominent The Pinnacle, near the Orange Common Cem and the Orange Basin. This area is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including the Cockermouth River and the Indian River, which flow through valleys used by local roads like Bryant Pond Rd and Province Rd.

In the northern reaches, Bucks Corner serves as a small crossroads where Bucks Brook and Merrill Brook converge. The map documents numerous family-named landmarks such as Tuttle Hill, Hoyt Hill, and Kimball Hill, reflecting the long-established land divisions of this New Hampshire region. Small bodies of water like Mirror Lake, Derby Pond, and Bryant Pond are scattered throughout the highlands, connected by a intricate web of rural routes and forest tracks.
