1930 Map of Moosehead Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1930

About this map

Moosehead Lake dominates this 1920s survey, illustrating the complex geography of Maine's largest body of fresh water. The map traces the early 20th-century transportation network that opened this region to tourism and timber, including the Maine Central Railroad arriving at Rockwood and the Canadian Pacific corridor crossing near Moosehead. The presence of Kineo Station and the settlement of Kineo at the foot of Mt Kineo highlights the area's development as a premier destination, while the isolated Masterman School within the Taunton and Raynham Tract speaks to the small, scattered communities that once dotted the shorelines. Large land divisions like Days Academy and Misery Gore define the legal landscape surrounding the massive Sugar Island and Deer Island. This study offers a clear look at the region before the modern shifts in forest management and recreational land use.
