About this map

White Mountain National Forest dominates this topographic study, revealing the complex drainage systems and peaks of the Sandwich Range. The landscape is defined by its recreation and preservation history, featuring the Sandwich Range Wilderness and the Sabbaday Falls National Recreation Trail. High-elevation landmarks like Mount Tripyramid, Mount Passaconaway, and Mount Whiteface overlook a network of water features including the Swift River and the isolated Flat Mountain Ponds.

Evidence of small-scale infrastructure appears at the Flat Pond Shelter and the dam on the ponds, while the southern edge shows the limited settlement at Intervale. The map documents a dense network of historic paths such as Kettles Path and the Livermore Trail, which follow the natural contours of the Mad River and Cascade Brook. This survey illustrates the transition from the high granite peaks of the White Mountains to the lower valley corridors.
