1975 Map of Burnham NW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Sebasticook River winds through the heart of this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, serving as the central geographic feature of the Waldo County landscape. This aerial perspective, captured in late October, reveals a patchwork of agricultural clearings and dense woodland that surrounds the central settlement of Burnham. The imagery provides a clear view of the village layout and its relationship to the water, while the neighboring settlements of Winnecook, Dix Corner, and Clinton anchor the surrounding rural tracts. Unlike traditional line maps, this photographic record shows the actual density of forest cover and the precise geometry of fields and roads during this era, offering a literal view of the land before modern expansion or forest succession altered these historic farmsteads and riverside properties.
