1975 Map of Caribou SE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Aroostook River curves through the southern reaches of this mid-1970s orthophoto, marking the edge of a landscape defined by intensive agricultural cultivation and small, dispersed settlements. The city of Caribou anchors the northeastern corner, where the street grid transitions into a patchwork of large farm fields and wooded stream corridors. This photographic survey reveals the distinct land-use patterns of the era, showing how smaller hamlets like Crouseville and rail-adjacent points such as Pauls and Jacobs are integrated into the rural economy. In the center of the quadrangle, Caribou Lake and the winding Caribou Stream provide a sharp contrast to the geometric lines of the surrounding cleared acreage, illustrating the natural drainage features that historically shaped local development in this northern Maine interior.
