1954 Map of North East Carry

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

North East Carry serves as a central hub in this wilderness landscape of the northern Maine woods, marking the portage between the upper reaches of the Penobscot River West Branch and the northern bay of Moosehead Lake. The area is defined by a sparse but essential network of outposts, including Smith Halfway House and Penobscot Farm, which supported the regional timber and transport economy in the mid-1950s. The terrain is dominated by significant water bodies such as Lobster Lake, with its distinctive Little Claw and Big Claw arms, and the expansive Seboomook Lake to the west.
