1977 Map of Seboomook Lake West

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Pittston Farm sits at the vital junction where the North Branch Penobscot River meets the Penobscot River, marking a historic hub of logging activity in the Maine woods. This 1977 orthophotoquad captures the landscape at a time when industrial forest management relied on a network of remote outposts and waterways. The dark expanse of Seboomook Lake dominates the southeast, its irregular shoreline shaped by the natural flow of the river system. Multiple tributaries, including the West Branch, East Branch, and Gulliver Brook, drain the densely forested northern sections of the quadrangle. The aerial imagery provides a clear view of the logging roads and clearings that characterize the Somerset County wilderness, contrasting the managed timberlands with the ancient watercourses that once served as the primary transport for the region's timber harvest.
