USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
Baxter State Park and the surrounding wilderness of north-central Maine are documented here just after the post-war revision of 1949. This map centers on the massive massif of Mount Katahdin, detailing its legendary peaks like Pamola and South Peak, along with the serrated ridge known as the Knife Edge. The landscape is a network of remote campsites and shelters, including Chimney Pond Campground and Katahdin Stream Campground, which serve as hubs for the burgeoning hiking culture of the era.
