1986 Map of Mount Washington

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The White Mountains dominate this mid-1980s planimetric study, which covers the intersection of New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine. At its center, the Mount Washington Cog Railway climbs toward the summit of Mount Washington, surrounded by the peaks of the Presidential Range. This era shows a landscape managed for both timber and recreation, with the White Mountain National Forest encompassing vast tracts of high-elevation terrain. Settlement patterns follow the river valleys, most notably along the Connecticut River where the Moore Reservoir and Comerford Reservoir mark significant hydroelectric development. Industrial rail corridors remain prominent, with the Maine Central Railroad, Boston & Maine Railroad, and Canadian National Railway facilitating transport between regional centers like St Johnsbury and Berlin. The map also captures the extent of protected lands in Franconia Notch State Park and Crawford Notch State Park, preserving the character of the mountain passes.
