1978 Map of Caribou Lake North

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Chesuncook Lake dominates this aerial perspective of the Maine wilderness, captured in the late 1970s. This orthophotograph, produced by the Geological Survey, offers a stark visual record of the northern forest and its intricate waterways. The expansive waters of Caribou Lake merge into the larger system, while smaller bodies like Mud Pond and Ripogenus Pond occupy the surrounding timberland. The imagery reveals the distinct patterns of industrial forestry, with clear-cut sections and access paths creating a geometric patchwork against the natural contours of the shoreline. This document is particularly valuable for understanding the scale of land management and the specific hydrological footprint of the region before modern digital mapping, providing an unvarnished look at the timber-and-water geography of Piscataquis County.
