1955 Map of Seven Islands

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The St John River cuts a wide path through the North Maine Woods, defining a landscape of isolated waterways and early logging access. This mid-century survey documents the confluence of the Big Black River and the St John, highlighting the Seven Islands area. The presence of the Forest Service Airfield and numerous private roads, such as California Road, underscores the region's management for timber and fire protection. Remote water bodies like Blood Lake, Houlton Pond, and the Ninemile Deadwater dominate the interior, accessible only via a network of jeep trails. A solitary Cem near the riverbanks and named features like Priestly Rapids reflect the sparse but persistent human footprint in this borderland territory adjoining L'Islet County, Quebec.
