1975 Map of Kingsbury SW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Kingsbury and the surrounding Somerset County highlands are captured here in an orthophotographic study from the mid-1970s. This specific type of imagery, prepared from 1:80,000-scale aerial photography taken in late October, provides a direct visual record of the land surface, revealing the density of forest cover and the precise layout of small settlements like Brighton and Mayfield Corner. The terrain is dominated by significant elevations including Foss Mountain and Bald Mountain, which dictate the sparse road network and settlement patterns of this upland region. Unlike a standard topographic map, this photoimagery allows for the identification of clearings and land use changes that are often simplified into symbols on traditional maps, offering a raw view of the landscape during a period of transition in Maine's interior.
