1956 Map of Penobscot Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The International Boundary defines the northwestern edge of this 1950s Maine wilderness, where the North Branch Penobscot River winds through unorganized townships. This landscape is a dense network of water and timber, centered on the expansive Penobscot Lake and surrounding smaller basins like Portage Lake and Spaulding Pond. Human activity in the mid-20th century is marked by isolated outpost structures, including a Fire Warden Camp and a Lookout Tower near Boundary Bald Mtn.
