1975 Map of Danforth NW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Mattawamkeag River and Baskahegan Stream converge in this northern Maine landscape, defining the local hydrology and early settlement patterns around South Bancroft. The orthophoto detail from the mid-1970s reveals the intricate relationship between the water and the land, with clearings for agriculture and homesteads interspersed among the dense forest cover characteristic of Aroostook County. Significant water bodies like Lower Hot Brook Lake and Upper Hot Brook Lake occupy the southern portion of the quadrangle, flanked by topographic prominent points such as Snow Mountain and Jimmey Mountain. This specific survey period captures the region's rural character, showing the precise footprints of dwellings in Weston and the surrounding timberlands before modern reforestation or development shifted the visible boundaries of these small communities.
