1986 Map of Cunliffe Lake

About this map

Allagash Wilderness State Waterway defines the eastern corridor of this remote Aroostook County landscape, where the Chemquasabamticook Stream winds through dense timberlands to meet the southern reaches of Long Lake. This mid-1980s survey captures a working wilderness characterized by a network of private roads used for logging operations, connecting isolated features like a Gravel Pit near the center of the map. The terrain is anchored by Grey Mountain, which rises between Grey Pond and Carlopons Pond. Further west, Cunliffe Lake sits as a significant water body fed by Cunliffe Brook. The map details the complex drainage system of the North Maine Woods, including Harvey Pond and numerous brooks like Harding Brook and Whittaker Brook, illustrating the area's geography before modern digital mapping. The township boundaries, such as T 12 R 13 W E L S, reflect the historical survey grid of the Maine Public Reserved Lands.
