2018 Map of Roxbury

About this map

Roxbury serves as the primary settlement on this modern topographic study, situated along the banks of the Swift River in the heart of Maine's western mountains. The landscape is defined by its significant relief, featuring numerous named peaks such as Whale Back Mtn. and Jackson Mtn. Historical and genealogical markers are well-preserved, including the Roxbury Village Cem near the town center, and the remote Shaw Cem and Pineview Cem. The boundary between Oxford and Franklin Counties cuts diagonally through the terrain, highlighting the region's geopolitical layout. Small-scale infrastructure like Thomas Airport and the winding Weld to Byron Rd illustrate the local transportation network through high-elevation passes like Byron Notch. Natural water bodies, from the high-altitude Tumbledown Pond to the secluded Bunker Pond, dot the drainages of the East Branch Swift River and its various mountain brooks.
