About this map

Mount Katahdin dominates this mid-century survey, surrounded by the growing boundaries of Baxter State Park. The map documents a transition in the North Woods from a working landscape of logging to a premier wilderness destination. Early recreational infrastructure is evident at Katahdin Stream Campground and Chimney Pond Campground, while the Katahdin Game Preserve designation highlights early conservation efforts.
