1975 Map of Shin Pond SE

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Shin Pond anchors the northern landscape of this 1975 orthophotoquad, which captures the forested interior of Penobscot County during the mid-1970s. This aerial-derived survey provides a rare, direct visual record of the northern Maine woods before contemporary large-scale timber management altered much of the canopy. The orthophoto reveals the fine textures of the dense timberlands, showing the winding logging roads and small clearings that supported the local forest economy. Unlike traditional topographic maps that use symbols for land cover, this imagery displays the actual density of the stands and the exact shoreline of the water bodies, offering researchers a literal snapshot of the environment as it existed on October 9, 1975.
