1979 Map of Foley Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

North Branch Penobscot River winds through this heavily forested Somerset County landscape, its course and the surrounding timberland captured through high-altitude aerial photography in late 1979. This orthophotoquad provides an unfiltered visual record of the North Woods before the transition to modern digital mapping, highlighting the complex drainage patterns of Lane Brook and Cunningham Brook. The topography is dominated by the massif of Green Mountain, while the namesake Foley Pond sits as a dark anchor in the central terrain. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this imagery reveals the actual density of the forest cover and the intricate web of logging roads or trails that crisscross the area, offering a rare perspective on the scale of Maine's wilderness management during this era.
