1932 Map of Nicatous Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Nicatous Club stands as a notable human outpost in this dense Maine wilderness, situated near the islands of Sand I and Cranberry I on the western shore of the lake. This 1932 survey, compiled in part from early Air Corps aerial photography, documents an intricate network of waterways including the Passadumkeag River and the sweeping 1000 Acre Heath. The landscape is defined by its recreation and early timber-related camps, such as Poplar Tavern and No 6 Camp. Water management for logging is evidenced by Knight Dam along the eastern edge, while old routes like Killman Rd pierce the woods near the Middle Unknown Lake. The map details a transition in land use, from the primary industry of the woods to the established camps and campgrounds like Maple Grove Campground and Cold Spring Campground.
