1958 Map of Saint John Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

St John Pond Depot serves as the central landmark in this remote reach of the Maine woods, situated near the northern shore of Fifth St John Pond. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the North Branch Penobscot River and a series of interconnected water bodies, including Third St John Pond and Fourth St John Pond. This 1950s terrain reflects the traditional township and range divisions of the West of East Line State (WELS), including t6 r17 Wels and t5 r17 Wels. Topography is punctuated by isolated peaks like Little Russell Mtn and Nulhedus Mtn, where a Lookout Tower once monitored the surrounding timberlands. Numerous bogs and streams, such as Big Bog and Abacotnetic Stream, indicate a complex drainage system essential to the regional logging history and natural hydrology.
