1925 Map of Attean

About this map

Jackman and Jackman Station serve as primary hubs for the upper Moose River valley in this mid-1920s survey of the Maine woods. The landscape is defined by the heavy timber and water power infrastructure of Somerset County, where the Canadian Pacific railroad cuts through the terrain near the international border with Canada. Local life is anchored by small outposts like the Stetson School, the Boston Ranch, and Dyerville, alongside established landings such as Attean Landing. Dominant peaks including Sally Mountain and Burnt Jacket Mountain rise above a dense network of water bodies, from the expansive Little Big Wood Pond to the secluded Burn Land Pond. The map captures the era's transition from pure wilderness to an industrial resource area, as evidenced by features like the Fire Station on Sally Mountain and the No 5 Farm.
