1954 Map of Caucomgomoc Lake

About this map

Caucomgomoc Lake dominates this mid-century landscape in the North Maine Woods, a region defined more by its timber-management hydrology than by permanent settlement. The presence of multiple water-control structures, including the Caucomgomoc Dam, Loon Lake Dam, and Caribou Dam, highlights a coordinated system of river driving and water storage essential to the local logging economy. While the township boundaries of Somerset and Piscataquis counties intersect here, the map reveals a wilderness largely devoid of paved roads, relying instead on a Jeep Road and a solitary Trail.
