1972 Map of Tuckernuck Island

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Tuckernuck Island and Muskeget Island anchor this coastal survey, which documents the shifting sands and shorelines of the Nantucket archipelago. Revisions from 1977 reveal the dynamic nature of these islands, particularly the formation of Esther Island and the intricate network of Tidal Flats surrounding Madaket Harbor. The interior of Tuckernuck is characterized by small bodies of water like North Pond and East Pond, with a solitary Landing Strip and Pier serving as the primary links to the mainland.
