1975 Map of Greenlaw SE

About this map

The Machias River meanders through this undeveloped stretch of the Maine woods, reflecting the landscape as it appeared in the mid-1970s. This orthophotoquad provides an unfiltered view of the timberland, where the intricate drainage patterns of Greenlaw Stream and Carry Brook define the topography. The lack of traditional settlement labels highlights the commercial timber harvesting operations of the era, visible in the distinct clearing patterns and logging roads that cut through the dense forest canopy. Near the confluence of the South Branch, the winding river channels suggest a riparian environment that has remained largely unchanged by permanent residential development, preserving a specific moment in the industrial forestry history of the North Maine Woods.
