1947 Map of Schoodic

About this map

Schoodic Lake and Seboeis Lake dominate this mid-century survey of the Maine wilderness at the boundary of Piscataquis and Penobscot counties. The landscape is defined by its timber and rail history, with the Bangor and Aroostook and Canadian Pacific railroads cutting through dense bogs and ridges. Small settlements like Lake View and Knights Landing dot the lake shores, while the southern portion of the map transitions into more established communities along the Piscataquis River.
