1975 Map of Houlton SW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Linneus and New Limerick anchor this 1975 orthophoto survey of southern Aroostook County, where the agricultural grid of Maine’s potato country meets the dense northeastern forests. The imagery provides a clear view of the rural landscape before modern development, showing the distinct patchwork of cleared fields and woodlots that defined the local economy during the mid-1970s. Waterways like the Meduxnekeag River and its South Branch cut through the terrain, with Glancy Lake serving as a prominent landmark in the northern section of the sheet. For those researching family homesteads or land-use history in this border region, the map offers an unfiltered look at road networks and individual farmstead clearings at a scale that captures the fine-grained texture of the rural Maine landscape.
