Naushon Island and the surrounding Elizabeth Islands appear here as they were documented in the early 1970s, based on earlier surveys and updated aerial photography. This maritime landscape is defined by a sparse settlement pattern, with the French Watering Place and the Tarpaulin Cove Lighthouse serving as significant navigational and historical landmarks along Vineyard Sound. The interior of Naushon is marked by family-named landmarks and geographic features such as Ramshead Woods, Mt Surat, and the intriguing Witches Glen.
