About this map

The Connecticut River forms a winding natural boundary for this White Mountains landscape, where the late nineteenth-century rail economy is on full display. At the turn of the century, this area served as a critical transportation hub, with the Maine Central R. R., Boston and Maine R. R., and Concord and Montreal R. R. all converging. This network facilitated a growing seasonal tourism industry, evidenced by landmarks like the Mount View House and Overlook House. The terrain is defined by the Ammonoosuc River valley and prominent summits such as Cherry Mountain and Agassiz Mt.. Numerous rail junctions, including Whitefield Junction and Quebec Junction, highlight the region's historical role as a gateway for both timber and travelers moving through the Whitefield and Lancaster regions.
