About this map

The international border between the Canada United States defines the western edge of this 1928 survey, where the dense timberlands of the North Maine Woods meet the Quebec frontier. The Canadian Pacific railway cuts a diagonal path through the township of Lowelltown, serving as the primary artery for remote outposts like the station at Lowelltown and the cluster of Summit Camps near the height of land. This region, dominated by the headwaters of the Moose River, was an active landscape of logging and sporting camps during the early twentieth century, evidenced by the presence of Hogans Camp and numerous named ponds such as Indian Pond and Clear Pond. Prominent peaks like Dome Mtn and Caswell Mtn overlook a complex network of waterways including the Gulf Stream and Little Smith Brook, illustrating the challenging logistics of the era's regional rail-and-river economy.
