1954 Map of North East Carry

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Moosehead Lake North Bay anchors the southern landscape of this 1954 survey, where the remote timberlands of Piscataquis County meet the historic portage point of North East Carry. This geography reflects a transitional era in the Maine North Woods, showing the established Penobscot Farm and Smith Halfway House as lonely outposts in a vast network of logging townships. The map details the controlled waters of the West Branch Penobscot River, including the Cassidy Dam and the expanded Seboomook Lake, which served as a critical corridor for the region's pulp and timber industry. To the east, the irregular shoreline of Lobster Lake is marked by deep inlets like Jackson Cove and the prominent Lobster Mountain, illustrating the intricate waterway system that defined movement through the East Middlesex Canal Grant before modern road networks dominated the forest.
