2024 Map of North Truro

About this map

North Truro and the adjacent Pond Village sit at the narrow northern end of Cape Cod, defined by the windswept landscape of the Cape Cod National Seashore. The terrain here is a complex mix of coastal geology, from the Dunes of the Provincelands and High Head to the dramatic elevation of Pilgrim Heights. Water dominates the landscape through features like Salt Meadow and Moon Pond, while the Little Pamet River carves through the southern section of the quadrangle. For genealogists and local historians, several landmark sites offer deep ties to the area's past, including the Old North Cem and the evocatively named Hills of Storms Cem near the Hill of Churches. The map captures a contemporary look at this historic maritime environment, where ancient names like Corn Hill and Higgins Hollow persist alongside protected shorelines.
