1923 Map of Brassua Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

Brassua Lake and the western shores of Moosehead Lake dominate this 1920s landscape, illustrating a remote Maine wilderness shaped by timber and early rail. The crossing of the Canadian Pacific and Maine Central railroads at Somerset Junction provided a critical transport hub for the region's camps and farms. Smaller settlements and outposts like Brassua, Mackamp, and Tarratine PO are visible alongside the rail lines, while logging and sporting interests are represented by numerous named camps, including Page Camp and Warren Camp. The terrain is punctuated by significant elevations such as Blue Ridge and Big Squaw Mountain, with the Kennebec River East Outlet draining the massive lakes. Local education is evidenced by the Blaine School near the Moose River, serving the isolated families at Cornish Farm and Milliken Farm.
