1977 Map of North East Carry

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Moosehead Lake dominates this late-1970s orthophotoquad, revealing the wooded shoreline and deep waters of Maine's northern wilderness. The photography, captured by the Geological Survey in November 1977, provides a clear view of the land-water interface at North East Carry, a traditional transit point between the lake and the Penobscot River system. Along the southern edge, the clearing at Folsom Farm stands out against the dense forest cover, indicating a history of localized land use in this timber-rich region. The terrain is defined by the rise of Eagle Mountain to the east and the coastal indentation of Ogontz on the western shore. Minor drainages like Williams Brook feed into the northern reaches of the lake, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Maine woods before modern development reached this remote sector.
