1975 Map of Mattawamkeag Lake SE

About this map

The timberlands of southern Aroostook County are captured in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, showing a landscape defined by industrial logging roads and winding waterways. The settlement of Glenwood sits near the junction of several access routes, serving as a rare pocket of habitation in a territory primarily utilized for forest resources. The hydrology of the region is centered on the confluence of the West Branch Mattawamkeag River and the East Branch Mattawamkeag River, which snake through the dense cover in the northeast. Smaller drainages like Babcock Brook and Alder Brook feed into this system, carving through a terrain marked by the distinct patterns of clearings and regrowth typical of Maine's working forests. This imagery provides a precise visual record of the forest's composition and the footprint of the 20th-century logging industry before modern digital mapping changed how these tracts were managed.
