1951 Map of Tuckernuck Island

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Tuckernuck Island and the isolated Muskeget Island anchor this coastal survey, which documents the shifting sands and shorelines between Nantucket Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. The geography reveals a fragile maritime landscape characterized by tidal ponds and narrow waterways, such as North Pond, East Pond, and the serpentine Narrow Cr. On the western edge of Nantucket Island, Maddeket Harbor is defined by the reaching landforms of Smith Point and Eel Point.
