1977 Map of Number Four Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Number Four Mountain and the surrounding high peaks of the Moosehead Lake region dominate this orthophotograph, which captures the Maine woods in late autumn. Prepared from imagery taken in November 1977, the map provides a high-contrast overhead view of the forest canopy and drainage patterns in an area defined by significant elevations like Lily Bay Mountain and Baker Mountain. The terrain transitions into the deep basin of Upper Wilson Pond and the smaller Horseshoe Pond to the south. This aerial perspective is particularly valuable for identifying logging road networks and hydrological features like South Brook as they existed before subsequent decades of timber harvesting changed the forest structure. The map highlights the isolation of Elephant Mountain, standing as a massive landmark in this sparsely settled portion of Piscataquis County.
