1975 Map of Millinocket SW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

West Branch Penobscot River flows across the northern edge of this terrain, anchoring a landscape dominated by water and timberland in southern Penobscot County. This 1975 orthophotograph provides a clear visual record of the shoreline and surrounding forest canopy of Nollesemic Lake, which occupies the central portion of the quadrangle. The imagery captures the natural drainage patterns and unpaved access routes through the woods, stretching toward Mattamiscontis Lake at the southern boundary and reaching the edge of South Branch Lake to the southeast. These orthophotomaps were specialized products of the era, using rectified aerial photography rather than traditional topographic lines to show the true ground cover and texture of the Maine wilderness as it appeared in the mid-1970s.
