1944 Map of Wellfleet

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The coastal landscapes of Wellfleet and Truro are meticulously documented in this mid-century survey, revealing the complex interplay of glacial kettle ponds and salt marshes that define the Outer Cape. The shoreline is punctuated by notable landmarks such as Mayo Beach and Great Island, while the inland topography is a dense network of freshwater bodies including Gull Pond, Long Pond, and Horseleech Pond. Local transport is anchored by the State Highway and the New York New Haven and Hartford RR, the latter serving the Truro Sta and connecting the small coastal villages.
