About this map

Acadia National Park dominates the eastern half of this mid-century survey, showcasing the island's complex network of summits including Sargent Mountain and Penobscot Mountain. The landscape is a mix of rugged coastal terrain and essential transportation infrastructure, such as the Bar Harbor Airport located in Trenton. Coastal life is evidenced by numerous coves and points, with established communities like Southwest Harbor, Somesville, and West Tremont serving as local hubs.
