1999 Map of Thomaston

About this map

Thomaston and Connorville serve as central hubs in this landscape within the Wakefield portion of the Ottawa National Forest. The map documents a territory defined by timber management and recreational transitions at the turn of the millennium, particularly around the Indianhead Mountain Ski Area and Indianhead Mtn. A network of watercourses, including Abitosse Creek, Bernadine Creek, and the cascading Gabbro Falls, carve through the terrain, illustrating the drainage patterns that feed into Jackson Creek. Cultural landmarks such as Manley Siding on the rail line and the Bessemer Ranger District office highlight the region's historical reliance on forestry and transport. The prevalence of active sites like Gravel Pits and a Landfill near Planter Creek indicates the ongoing industrial and municipal utility of the land during the late 1990s.
