1978 Map of Sebec Lake West

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Sebec Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 1978 orthophotograph, a period when the timberlands of Piscataquis County were captured via high-altitude aerial survey. The settlement of Onawa sits at the northern edge near Lake Onawa, connected to the southern waters by the winding course of Ship Pond Stream. This unique photographic record provides a clear view of the dense forest canopy and natural drainage patterns of the Maine woods before significant modern development. The imagery reveals the varied shoreline of First Buttermilk and the confluence where Big Wilson Stream meets the western reach of Sebec, offering a detailed look at the land's texture and water levels as they existed in the late 1970s.
