About this map

Bretton Woods and the high peaks of the Presidential Range dominate this 1930s landscape, illustrating the complex intersection of early recreational tourism and industrial forestry. The map traces the famous Mount Washington Cog RR ascending from the Base Station toward the summit, while the valley floors are defined by the paths of the Boston and Maine RR and Maine Central RR. These rail lines connected established mountain resorts like the Ravine House and Highlands with smaller timber-related outposts such as Camp 18 and Camp 19.
