1956 Map of Stratton

About this map

Bigelow Mountain dominates this landscape, its series of high peaks including Cranberry Peak, West Peak, and Myron H Avery Peak forming a massive ridge between the Dead River valley and the smaller ponds to the south. This 1956 revision documents the area as it appeared after the creation of Flagstaff Lake, which submerged much of the former river valley. The villages of Stratton and Eustis serve as primary points of habitation, while the settlement of Bigelow is marked near an old railroad grade that once serviced the region's timber industry.
