1942 Map of Forest

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The Canada-United States border follows the deep waters of the Chiputneticook Lakes and Spednik Lake in this 1940s survey of eastern Maine. The landscape is defined by its international water boundaries and the vital rail lines that connect this remote timber country to the larger world. The Maine Central and Canadian Pacific railroads traverse the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving small outposts like Forest and Lambert Lake. Local commerce and movement are dictated by the terrain, with Forest City Landing and Forest City anchoring the north near the St Croix River. Topographical landmarks such as Tomah Mountain and Vance Mountain rise above the complex network of brooks and streams, while a Fire Tower on Pirate Hill stands watch over the surrounding forest and the small clearing at Todds Farm.
