1931 Map of Cupsuptic

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Upper Cupsuptic and the surrounding unorganized territories of Oxford County define this wilderness landscape along the international boundary and the Quebec border. Surveyed in the early 1930s, the map reveals a remote region driven by timber and sporting culture, where a complex network of camps like Cupsuptic Sporting Camp and Riverside Camp served woodsmen and visiting anglers. The drainage of the Cupsuptic River and its Big Canyon are central features, alongside the Central Maine railroad line which skirted the southeastern edge near Kennebago Lake. Landmarks such as the Parmachenee Club and the Fire Tower on West Kennebago Mtn indicate the era's dual focus on exclusive outdoor recreation and active forest fire monitoring. Small, functional outposts including Game Wardens Camp and the curiously named Moochers Home offer specific points of interest for local historians studying the human footprint in the Maine North Woods.
