1954 Map of North East Carry

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

North East Carry serves as a critical junction in this mid-century portrait of the Maine North Woods, where the northern reaches of Moosehead Lake North meet the West Branch Penobscot River. The geography is defined by the historic transport route between these major waterways, reflected in the presence of the Smith Halfway House and Penobscot Farm. To the west, Seboomook Lake is fed by Elm Stream and Negro Brook, while the landscape to the east is dominated by the prominent rise of Little Spencer Mtn. This period of the 1950s captures a working landscape of logging and remote habitation, shown through features like the Cassidy Dam and the expansive East Middlesex Canal Grant. Numerous coves and islands, including Drummond Cove and Seboomook Island, detail the intricate shoreline of the Lake Bay area.
