2018 Map of Sandy Bay Mountain

About this map

The international border between Canada and the United States defines this high-latitude terrain, where the headwaters of major river systems originate from glacial lakes. The topography is dominated by Sandy Bay Mountain in the southeast, a significant peak that overlooks the drainage divide between the Atlantic and St. Lawrence watersheds. To the north and west of the boundary, the landscape is a network of Canadian waterways including Rivière du Loup, Rivière du Monument, and several ponds such as Lac Whisky and Lac Jolin. In the American sector, the terrain drops toward the S Br Penobscot River and W Br Sandy Stream. A modern corridor follows the border, marked by the Alt Main Trl and Powerline Rd, illustrating how utility and transport infrastructure often parallels national boundaries in remote woodland regions.
