About this map

Knowles Corner serves as the primary human landmark in this section of Aroostook County, situated at a crossroad amidst the dense timberlands and waterways of Northern Maine. Captured during an October 1975 aerial survey, the orthophotograph reveals a landscape defined by industrial forestry and the natural drainage patterns of the Mattawamkeag River. The high-contrast imagery highlights the stark transition between thick evergreen canopies and cleared tracts near Dudley Brook. To the west, the dark expanse of Rockabema Lake sits at the base of the prominent Shoaler Mtn, illustrating the topographical variation of the Maine interior before the heavy snows of winter set in. This survey is particularly useful for observing the specific road network and land-use boundaries around the small settlement of Knowles Corner during the mid-1970s.
