About this map

The Saco River valley serves as the primary artery for settlement and commerce throughout this region of the White Mountains during the mid-1940s. Villages such as North Conway, Jackson, and Bartlett are shown connected by the Maine Central and Boston and Maine railroads, highlighting the area's importance as a transportation hub. The landscape is heavily defined by high peaks and recreation, featuring the Cold River AMC Camp and numerous backcountry structures like Black Mtn Cabin and the Davis Memorial Tower. Land use patterns are dictated by the topography, with most development hugging the narrow lowlands near Echo Lake and Goodrich Falls, while the surrounding slopes are protected within the White Mountain National Forest and Merriman State Forest.
