1975 Map of St Francis SW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The remote forestlands of northern Aroostook County are captured here in late October 1975, showing a landscape defined by dense timber and winding waterways. This orthophotoquad provides an unvarnished aerial perspective of the region just south of the Canadian border, where the terrain is dominated by a complex network of ridges and drainage basins. Visible features include the winding path of Negro Brook and the remote waters of Jones Mill in the eastern portion of the sheet. The imagery reveals the intensity of local logging operations, with a dense web of timber haul roads and clearings cutting through the heavy canopy. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this aerial view documents the literal state of the forest cover and the precise layout of access trails during the mid-1970s, making it a valuable tool for tracking changes in Maine's industrial woodlands.
