The village of North Conway serves as the focal point for this mountain landscape, positioned where the Saco River valley widens below the granite heights of Kearsarge North. In the early 1940s, the region was characterized by its dual identity as a working timber and rail corridor and a growing destination for mountain recreation. The presence of the Boston and Maine Railroad and the Maine Central Railroad facilitated the movement of people and materials through the valley, connecting settlements like Redstone and Glen to the wider New England network.
