1978 Map of Barren Mountain East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Barren Mountain and the surrounding high peaks of Piscataquis County dominate this 1978 orthophotoquad, which uses aerial imagery to show the land exactly as it appeared. The terrain is defined by dramatic ridgelines and several significant water bodies, including Long Pond and Indian Pond, nestled between the slopes of Columbus Mountain and Fourth Mountain. The West Branch Pleasant River cuts through the northern portion of the landscape, while the southern edge features the northern reaches of Lake Onawa. This perspective emphasizes the raw geological forms and dense forest cover of the Maine woods, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography and undeveloped character during the late 1970s before any modern alterations.
