1975 Map of Oxbow NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Masardis and Griswold mark the human presence in this heavily forested section of Aroostook County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Aroostook River. This 1975 orthophotoquad provides a clear aerial perspective of the timberlands during a period of transition in Maine's northern interior. The imagery highlights the stark contrast between the dense woodland and the cleared corridors carved by the St Croix Stream and the occasional logging roads or rail beds that cross the terrain. Near the western edge, the dark waters of Cranberry Pond stand out against the surrounding forest, illustrating the boggy and undeveloped character of the region. The spatial relationship between the river and these small settlements reflects the historic dependence of the local economy on water-driven transport and the lumber industry.
