About this map

The Sandy River snakes through this Franklin County landscape, its wide, sediment-filled valley providing a stark contrast to the surrounding forested uplands. In the late 1970s, the town of Phillips served as a key local hub where the river bends sharply, marking a transition from the higher peaks of Phillips Mountain to the rolling agricultural and timber lands of Avon. This orthophotoquad captures the physical reality of the terrain in 1977, showing the intricate relationship between human settlement and the river's path, particularly at Avon Corner. To the south, the deep waters of Mount Blue Pond sit tucked beneath the shoulder of Mount Blue, demonstrating the variety of water features from high-elevation brooks like Bear Brook to the broad alluvial plain of the main river valley.
