1929 Map of Portage

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Portage Lake and the village of Portage anchor the southwestern corner of this 1929 survey, which captures the remote logging and sporting landscape of central Aroostook County. The Bangor and Aroostook railroad follows the shoreline and the Aroostook River valley, serving as the primary corridor for a landscape defined by timber harvesting and seasonal camps. Numerous family-named outposts such as Norbeck Camp, Haynes Camp, and Sands Camp are scattered along Goddard Ridge, reflecting the early 20th-century reliance on tote roads and woodland trails.
