1935 Map of Fish River Lake

About this map

Fish River Lake and the surrounding unorganized townships of Aroostook County are depicted here following a 1931 survey that utilized early aerial photography by the U.S. Army Air Corps. The landscape is defined by a dense network of remote outposts and logging-era infrastructure, including Wheelock Mill and Michauds Mill in the northern reaches. The presence of numerous named camps, such as Red River Camps, Bishops Camps, and Blanchards Depot Camp, highlights the area's history as a destination for sportsmen and timber workers.
