1986 Map of Island Falls
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The West Branch Mattawamkeag River defines the central topography of this Aroostook County survey, winding past Warren Falls and Stair Falls before reaching the village of Island Falls. The landscape reflects a mid-1980s transition where traditional river-based industry meets modern infrastructure, evidenced by the Bangor and Aroostook railroad line and a local Waste Treatment facility. Smaller settlements such as Belvedere and Batesville occupy the western and northern fringes, while the eastern portion is dominated by the steep ascent of Robinson Mtn and De Lette Ridge. This map records a time of continued reliance on the local waterways, with Fish Stream and Alder Brook feeding into the Mattawamkeag, and various Gravel Pits indicating the active extraction of resources from the glacial terrain.
