1977 Map of Northwest Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Mont Gosford anchors the western edge of this orthophotograph, representing the boundary landscape between Maine and Quebec in the late 1970s. This survey, derived from 1977 aerial imagery, illustrates a region defined by its hydrographic network rather than human settlements. The drainage patterns of the Kennebago River and the northern flow of Riviere Arnold dominate the terrain, reflecting the area's role as a watershed. Local water bodies such as Northwest Pond and Big Island Pond are prominent features alongside the expansive Massachusetts Bog. The absence of roads or structures in this quadrant highlights the remote character of the borderlands during this era, serving as a record of the undeveloped forest and wetland systems before modern changes. For those studying the history of the Kennebago headwaters, these clear aerial captures provide an exact layout of the Ruisseau Morin and its surrounding topography.
