1987 Map of Mt. Cardigan

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Mt Cardigan dominates this 1980s landscape, serving as the central hub for a network of drainages and recreational boundaries in Grafton County. The terrain is defined by its dramatic relief, from the peak of Firescrew down to the basins of Orange and Bucks Corner. The map illustrates the hydrology of the eastern slopes, where the South Branch Baker River and Cockermouth River begin their courses, carved between heights like Mowglis Mountain and Hoyt Hill. The presence of Mt Cardigan State Forest and Province Road State Forest indicates a landscape heavily managed for conservation and public use by the late 20th century. Local landmarks like Cilleys Cave and The Pinnacle suggest the area's long-standing draw for hikers and explorers, while a few scattered gravel pits and a mine hint at the small-scale extractive industry that persisted alongside the developing snowmobile trail network.
