1975 Map of Ashland NW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The town of Ashland serves as the focal point of this 1970s orthophotoquad, which uses aerial photography to capture the intricate patterns of Northern Maine's timber and agricultural landscape. Situated at the confluence where the Machias River joins the broader Aroostook River, the settlement's layout reveals a clear relationship between the water and local industry. The high-contrast imagery highlights the patchwork of cleared fields and dense woodlands, documenting the state of land use in Aroostook County just before the 1980s. While traditional topographic maps rely on symbols, this photographic survey provides a literal view of the road networks and river bends as they existed in October 1975.
