Greetings, everyone - this is my first post to the group. I live on
the CA-US border, near Lexington, Michigan. My back yard ends at Lake
Huron and, where the beach ends, so does the USA. I can see the Blue
Water Bridge between Port Huron MI and Sarnia ON from the beach. At
my location, Canada is slightly east from due south of the USA.

I found this group while looking for stories about the gas guy in
Estcourt, Maine. I saw all the news stories on Canadian TV, and none
of them provided a clear layout of the village. From what the stories
told: the Canadian control point is right on the border, but the US
control point is about a mile inside the border. There's a gas
station bewteen it and the border, and no other roads leave the US
side of the village. So you have to go through Canada to reach the
rest of the USA.

Is there a large scale, larger than topo, map of this bi-national
village anywhere on the Net? And what about the village of Estcourt
Station, Maine? It's downstream from the border crossing, marked on
some maps. The maps indicate no point of entry across the St. Francis
River here. So it would appear that, to get there, you have to go
through Estcourt, and that would mean there is more than one road out
of town. It seems unlikely that so much of Maine, including two
villages, would be accessible only from Canada.
