1977 Map of Black Nubble

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Crocker Mountain and Black Nubble dominate this 1977 orthophotoquad, which uses rectified aerial imagery to provide a precise look at the Maine wilderness before later developments. The high-altitude perspective of this Franklin County terrain reveals the intricate drainage patterns of Nash Stream as it carves through the timbered slopes. Unlike a traditional topographic map, this survey provides a direct visual record of forest density and land use in the late 1970s, showing the stark contrast between the shadowed peaks and the valley floors. Other prominent features include the elevation of Hedgehog Hill, showing a landscape defined by its mountains and the absence of established settlements or road networks within this specific quadrangle's bounds.
