1977 Map of Lobster Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Lobster Lake dominates the northern reaches of this orthophotoquad, its irregular shoreline and surrounding wetlands providing a clear view of the Piscataquis County wilderness in the late 1970s. The aerial imagery captures the dense forest canopy of the North Maine Woods, punctuated by significant elevations like Lobster Mountain and Norcross Mountain. This type of survey, relying on a 1977 aerial photograph, reveals the land as a working timberland, where logging roads and clearings contrast with the dark, undisturbed water of Spencer Pond and the drainage of Lobster Stream. Toward the east, the map captures a portion of Moosehead Lake, providing a precise record of the shoreline and hydrology before later development or shifts in forest management altered the local landscape.
