1944 Map of Sandy Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Customs Excise Land Immigration stations at Armstrong and St Theophile anchor this 1944 War Department survey of the international boundary between Maine and Quebec. This remote border region is defined by the headwaters of the Kennebec River and its major tributaries, including the Liniere River and Taschereau River. The map illustrates a landscape of high-elevation ponds and timber-focused settlements, featuring isolated outposts like South Branch Camp and upland agricultural clearings at Hilton Farm and Sandy Bay Farm. To the east, the topography rises sharply toward the summits of Bald Mountain and Sandy Bay Mountain. In an era of early forest management and fire prevention, the Fire Rangers Tower near Coburn Lake stood as a critical landmark for monitoring this vast watershed of the North Woods.
