1975 Map of Fort Kent SE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The St John River carves a deep valley through this borderland, serving as the international boundary between Maine and New Brunswick in the mid-1970s. This orthophotoquad captures the agrarian landscape of the St. John Valley, where long, narrow farm strips extend away from the riverbanks, a pattern characteristic of the region's Acadian heritage. The town of Fort Kent sits at the confluence with the Fish River, serving as a primary hub for commerce and transport on the American side. Across the water, the Canadian settlements of Baker Brook and Clair line the northern shore. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this aerial imagery reveals the exact footprint of woodlots and cleared fields, providing a literal view of land use during a period when the local economy was deeply tied to both timber and agriculture.
