1927 Map of Second Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Second Lake and the upper reaches of the Connecticut River dominate this 1927 survey of the northern New Hampshire wilderness. The landscape is defined by its industrial and recreational outposts, from the remote Idlewild settlement to numerous logging and sporting camps like Camp No 36 and Depot Camp. Water management is evident at the Schoppe Dam on the Connecticut River, situated near the rugged Black Cat Spur. This period of the late 1920s shows the region's transition into a managed timber and watershed resource, with fire lookouts at Deer Mtn and Magalloway Mtn standing watch over the vast drainage basins of the Magalloway River and the First Connecticut Lake. The map meticulously tracks the international boundary with Quebec, noting landmarks such as United Salmon Mtn along the border with Canada.
