2021 Map of Vanceboro

About this map

Vanceboro stands as a pivotal border settlement on this northern frontier, situated where the St. Croix River forms the international boundary between the United States and Canada. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology and glacial remnants, notably The Horseback ridge running adjacent to the river corridor. To the west, LaCoute Lake dominates the interior, surrounded by a network of family-named landmarks like Nason Point and Hedgehog Point. The river itself is a succession of technical water features, including Wingdam Rips, Elbow Rips, and Mile Rips, which trace the historical path of the regional logging and water-power economy. Local connectivity is maintained through rural routes such as Vanceboro Rd and Salmon Brook Rd, which navigate the elevation changes around Sussie Hill and provide access to remote reaches like The Cape.
