1975 Map of Millinocket Lake SW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Millinocket Lake dominates the southeastern portion of this 1975 orthophotoquad, its dark waters providing a sharp contrast to the dense timberland of the Maine woods. The orthophoto imagery, captured by the U.S. Geological Survey in October of that year, reveals the intricate texture of the forest floor and the web of logging roads that crisscross the terrain. Rising above the low-lying wetlands and smaller ponds is the prominent elevation of Caribou Ridge, which serves as a significant topographic landmark in this relatively uninhabited sector of Piscataquis County. This specialized map format prioritizes the raw aerial perspective over traditional cartographic symbols, allowing researchers to study the exact state of the shoreline and forest canopy before decades of subsequent growth and harvesting.
