1950 Map of Sebec Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Boarstone Mountain and its surrounding peaks dominate this mid-century landscape in Piscataquis County, where the rugged North Woods of Maine are defined by a mix of heavy industry and wilderness recreation. The Canadian Pacific railroad cuts through the center of the sheet, serving remote settlements like Onawa and St Regis Depot Camp while providing access to the numerous ponds and streams that dot the region. To the south, the slate industry is evidenced by the density of extraction sites around Monson, including the Hillside Quarry and Eighteen Quarry Pond. The map also captures the local social fabric through landmarks like Finn Hall and the Sprague Sch, alongside the developing outdoor culture marked by the Appalachian Trail as it traverses the ridges toward Barren Mountain. Water-borne transportation and seasonal camps are centered around the shores of Sebec Lake at Earley Landing and Packard Landing.
