1943 Map of Old Speck Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Grafton Notch and the high peaks of the Mahoosuc Range dominate this mid-century survey of the Maine wilderness. The rugged landscape is traversed by the Appalachian Trail, which winds past Old Speck Mtn Fire Tower and Table Rock, crossing significant elevation shifts through the Andover West Surplus. While the terrain is largely uninhabited, small outposts of settlement are found at North Newry PO and Ketchum in the southern valleys. The hydrological network is well-defined, featuring dramatic water landmarks like The Cataracts on Frye Brook and Mother Walker Falls along the Bear River. To the north, the shoreline of Lower Richardson Lake marks the edge of the wilderness, while the Powers Cem near the Sunday River provides a rare genealogical waypoint for researchers of the Newry area.
