1941 Map of Mattawamkeag Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mattawamkeag Lake dominates this northern Maine landscape, serving as a central drainage point for the surrounding Aroostook County timberlands during the early 1940s. The hydrography of the region is intricately detailed, showing the convergence of the West Branch and East Branch Mattawamkeag River. Evidence of the area's logging history and water management is visible through features like Moores Dam and Long Dam, while the remote settlement at Glenwood and the isolated City Camp Landing indicate the seasonal and industrial nature of local residency. Notable landmarks include the Otter Lake Fire Tower and the curiously named Hamilton Mistake cove. The map also traces the historical Monument Line, a significant surveying boundary that bisects the townships of Island Falls and Haynesville.
