1975 Map of Mooseleuk Lake SE

About this map

Rowe Lake sits at the northern edge of this orthophotoquad, serving as a prominent landmark in a landscape defined by timber and terrain. This 1975 aerial survey captures the dense forest patterns of northern Maine, revealing the network of logging roads and clearings that weave between the region's distinctive peaks. The winding path of Chase Brook cuts through the southern half of the sheet, providing a natural drainage route for the surrounding highlands. The topography is dominated by several named summits, including Round Mountain, Peaked Mountain, Spectacle Mountain, and Center Mountain. Unlike standard topographic maps, this orthophotograph provides a direct visual record of vegetation density and land-use practices in the Maine woods during the mid-1970s, making it an essential resource for understanding the historical footprint of the timber industry in this specific quadrangle.
