1975 Map of Square Lake NE

About this map

The settlement of St Agatha stands out along the northwestern shores of Long Lake in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad of Aroostook County. This unique aerial perspective reveals the distinct strip-farming patterns characteristic of the Acadian heritage in northern Maine, where long, narrow lots extend back from the water and road networks. The landscape transition is stark between the cleared agricultural lands near the lake and the dense interior timberlands. Moving south, the map follows the interconnected water system through Sinclair and the narrowing of the water at Mud Lake, eventually reaching the northern tip of Cross Lake near Guerette. This document serves as a clear record of land use and forest density during a period of established lakeside settlement and rural development.
