About this map

Pine River meanders through a landscape defined by glacial deposits and conservation lands at the turn of the 21st century. The map details the transition between several Carroll County towns, including Effingham, Ossipee, Wakefield, and Wolfeboro. Significant protected spaces such as Heath Pond Bog State Natural Area and the Pine River State Forest dominate the central terrain, while local industry is evidenced by numerous Sand and Gravel Pits scattered near Poland and Granite.

Cultural landmarks and small settlements like Center Effingham and Leighton Corners anchor the rural road network. Notable recreation and social features include the Drive-in Theater west of Duncan Lake and a Private Campground near the banks of Pine Brook. Large water bodies like Pine River Pond and Province Lake mark the lower and eastern boundaries, showing the importance of these basins to the regional geography.
