1975 Map of Shin Pond NW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Seboeis Farm sits as a lonely human outpost in this dense Maine forest, as captured by a 1975 aerial orthophotoquad. The landscape is dominated by the dark waters of Seboeis Lake and the rising elevation of Snowshoe Mtn in the northern portion of the quadrangle. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this imagery-based study provides a direct look at the timber density and the intricate network of logging roads and trails that defined the region's mid-century wilderness economy. The absence of larger settlements highlights the isolation of this part of Penobscot County, where water and wood were the primary features of interest for the Usgs mappers.
