1956 Map of Little Bigelow Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Flagstaff Lake and the Dead River dominate this Central Maine landscape, captured during a period when the region was defined by remote sporting camps and logging routes. The map illustrates the historic Carrying Place portage between West Carry Pond and Middle Carry Pond, a route used for centuries. Local infrastructure is sparse but notable, including the Highland Sch and the Dead River Fish Hatchery near the river's northern bend. Settlements like Sterlings Camps and East Carry Camps suggest the area's mid-century character as a destination for wilderness recreation. The Appalachian Trail winds over the peaks of Little Bigelow Mtn and Stewart Mtn, while the Old Canada Road traces a historic passage through the northeast corner, reflecting the deep layers of transit and habitation in these unorganized townships.
