The Lakes • Western Connecticut Planning Region, Connecticut • Surveyed
Lake Candlewood
Where our figure and the state's part: the state's maximum is one sounding and the deepest contour is a line drawn above it; the gap is inside one contour interval (5 ft under a 10 ft interval).
Every contour on the print is a line the state's surveyors drew; nothing between them is guessed. Pin your dock in the studio and it prints under the name your family uses.
What arrives: the print you set up, drawn at the size you choose, shipped flat or rolled by the printer, or a file the same day for the digital edition.
