1927 Map of Second Connecticut Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Pittsburg township in northernmost New Hampshire defines this 1927 landscape, where the headwaters of the Connecticut River begin their southward journey. The map reveals a wild, industrial-frontier character dominated by logging activity, evidenced by numerous numbered outposts like Camp No 8 and Camp No 36 scattered through the drainages of the Dead Diamond River and Magalloway River. The presence of the Schoppe Dam at Scott Bog and early lakeside developments at Idlewild and Camp Otter mark the early 20th-century transition toward managed water resources and remote seasonal recreation. High summits such as Magalloway Mtn and Deer Mtn, both featuring a Fire Tower, provide the literal high points for a region defined by its proximity to the Canada-United States border and the Maine-New Hampshire line.
