1973 Map of Mount Kineo

About this map

The White Mountain National Forest dominates this mid-1970s topography, revealing a landscape of steep ridgelines and high-elevation recreation. A segment of the Appalachian Tr traverses the northern reaches near Hurricane Mtn, while more localized paths like the Gorge Brook Trail and Mount Kineo Trail provide access to the interior. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure of mountain tourism through sites like the Ravine Lodge, McKenney Cabin, and a Golf Course at the small settlement of Breezy Point. Hydrology is central to the area's character, with the Baker River and the East Branch Baker River cutting through the valleys. Notable water bodies such as Stinson Lake, Foxglove Pond, and Three Ponds are mapped alongside natural landmarks like Waternomee Falls. This survey documents a period of established conservation and forest management across several townships including Benton, Warren, and Ellsworth.
