1949 Map of Katahdin

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Baxter State Park and Game Preserve anchors this survey, detailing the primitive infrastructure and high-mountain terrain surrounding Mount Katahdin in the mid-20th century. The map traces the early development of the park's recreation network, including the Appalachian Trail and specialized routes like the Knife Edge Trail and Cathedral Trail. While the peaks of The Brothers and Mullen Mtn dominate the western half, the lower elevations are marked by seasonal outposts such as Katahdin Lake Camps and Joe Francis Camp.
