1975 Map of Square Lake SW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Square Lake and the eastern reach of Eagle Lake define this mid-1970s orthophoto, providing a photographic record of the North Maine Woods before modern developments changed the shoreline. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this survey uses rectified aerial photography to reveal the dense coniferous forest canopy and the precise patterns of timber harvesting across the Aroostook County interior. Small interior water bodies like California Pond and the drainage of Dimock Brook are visible amidst the timberlands, showing the complex hydrology of the region. The map preserves the exact state of logging roads and forest clearings as they existed during the 1975 flyover by the Geological Survey, offering a unique look at the industrial forest landscape of the late twentieth century.
