1931 Map of Cupsuptic

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

Cupsuptic River and the Kennebago River define this high-country landscape in the western Maine wilderness, surveyed by Frank Larner and W.B. Brewer in the early 1930s. The map illustrates a region structured by sporting culture and logging operations, where remote outposts like the Parmachenee Club and Cupsuptic Sporting Camp provided basepoints for backcountry navigation. The dense network of rivers and ponds, including the expansive Aziscoos Lake and Parmachenee Lake, suggests a landscape primary navigated by water and trail, with portages connecting different watersheds. Notable landmarks such as the Fire Tower on Sable Ridge and specialized sites like the Cupsuptic Nursery reveal the active management of the forest, while humorously named spots like Moochers Home provide a rare glimpse into the local vernacular of the era's camp life.
