1975 Map of Springfield NE

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Prentiss and the surrounding woodlands of northern Penobscot County are revealed in this 1975 aerial orthophotograph, providing a clear record of land use before modern development. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Mattakeunk Stream, which drains the timbered hills of this rural Maine interior. Small agricultural clearings and crossroads like Thompson Corners dot the terrain, while the southern portion of the map is anchored by the community of Carroll. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this imagery highlights the specific patterns of timber harvesting and reforestation occurring across the slopes of Bowers Mountain. It captures the exact footprint of forest roads and homesteads as they existed in the mid-1970s, serving as a primary source for understanding the region's mid-century logging and agricultural economy.
