About this map

North Conway and the mountain settlements of the Mount Washington Valley are depicted here just as the post-war era began. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Saco River, which serves as the primary corridor for both the Maine Central and Boston and Maine railroads. While the village centers of Jackson and Glen show established road networks including State Route 16, the surrounding terrain is a mosaic of steep ridges and protected lands like the Merriman State Forest and Conway State Forest. The presence of landmarks such as Cathedral Ledge and the Davis Memorial Tower on Black Mtn illustrates the region's long-standing draw for recreation and scenic observation. Local history details are preserved in the locations of the Eastman Sch and industrial points like Redstone, known for its quarrying history near the base of Rattlesnake Mtn.
