1989 Map of North East Carry

About this map

Moosehead Lake North Bay dominates this late-twentieth-century landscape, framed by large historical land divisions including Days Academy Grant and the East Middlesex Canal Grant. Along the eastern shoreline, the small settlement of North East Carry marks a vital portage point between the lake and the Penobscot River system. The topography is defined by prominent rises like Eagle Mtn and Norcross Mtn, while the irregular coastline features distinct points such as Seboomook Point and Norcross Point. Small clusters of human activity are evident at Ogontz and Folsom Farm, interspersed with several designated campsites that cater to the region's long tradition of outdoor recreation. The map also records unique local landmarks like Drummond Cave and the curiously named Toe of the Boot, providing a detailed look at the interface between the Maine woods and its largest lake before modern development intensified.
