About this map

The international border between the United States and Canada defines the northwestern reaches of this Maine backcountry, where surveyors in 1928 documented a landscape of timber-driven outposts and high peaks. This area is characterized by a network of logging and sporting camps, such as Moosehill Camp, Caribou Camp, and Ben Dewitt Camp, which were essential to the local forest economy. The presence of Round Mtn PO and the Upper Farm near Chain Lakes suggests a small, working community established amidst the drainage systems of the Moose River and Alder Stream.
