About this map

The Appalachian National Scenic Trail traverses the high ridges of the White Mountain National Forest, connecting a series of prominent peaks including Mt Garfield, South Twin Mountain, and Mt Guyot. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its dramatic drainage networks, with the Franconia Br and Lincoln Brook carving deep valleys in the southern portion of the quadrangle.

Evidence of local water management is visible at the Littleton Reservoir and Twin Mountain Reservoir on the northern slopes. While the interior is largely undeveloped wilderness, the settlement at Deerfield and roads like Haystack Rd anchor the northern edge of the sheet. Hikers and cartographers will note significant landmarks such as Thirteen Falls and the jagged elevation of The Cliffs, which illustrate the complex topography of the Grafton County highlands.
