1975 Map of Greenlaw SW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Machias River winds through the densely forested landscape of the Aroostook wilderness in this mid-1970s orthophotograph. This specialized survey, derived from 1975 aerial photography, provides a literal overhead view of the Maine woods, where the vegetation patterns and logging tracks are as prominent as the topography. The terrain is defined by distinct elevations such as Horse Mountain and Jack Mountain, while The Pinnacle stands as a notable landmark in the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the area is dominated by the South Branch Machias River, which joins the main stem amidst a network of timber-harvesting routes. Unlike standard topographic maps, this imagery captures the actual state of the forest canopy and ground disturbance during a period of active resource management in Northern Maine.
