1958 Map of Caucomgomoc Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Caucomgomoc Lake dominates this mid-century landscape in Northern Maine, a region defined by extensive timberlands and complex waterways. The 1958 field survey reveals a wilderness managed for logging and recreation, connected by a network of private roads rather than public highways. Industrial and hydraulic control is evident at Caucomgomoc Dam and Loon Lake Dam, while the presence of Gravel Pits suggests the infrastructure maintenance required for remote forest operations. Topographical landmarks like Caucomgomoc Mtn and Telephone Hill rise above a dense collection of water bodies, including Shallow Lake and Big Hurd Pond. The map also captures the peculiar nomenclature of the area's moving waters, such as the rapid section of Caucomgomoc Stream known as The Horserace. This document serves as a detailed record of the West East Lesser Section (WELS) townships before modern industrial changes altered the backwoods character of the Maine woods.
