1947 Map of Schoodic

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Seboeis Lake and the surrounding timberlands of Piscataquis and Penobscot counties define this mid-century landscape. The area is marked by a dual-rail corridor where the Bangor and Aroostook and Canadian Pacific lines converge near the town of Milo. To the north, the terrain becomes a complex network of waterways and ridges, including the prominent Schoodic Mtn and the sprawling One Thousand Acre Bog. Small lakeside outposts like Packards and Knights Landing suggest the era's recreational and seasonal economy, while the settlement at Medford and the Maxfield Sch anchor the year-round community along the river. The presence of features like Deadman Rock and The Tongue in Seboeis Lake highlights the specific local nomenclature of the Maine woods before modern development intensified.
