1975 Map of Stacyville NW

About this map

Lunksoos Mountain stands as a prominent elevation in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, overlooking a landscape defined by the convergence of major waterways in the North Maine Woods. The winding course of the East Branch Penobscot River cuts through the northern half of the sheet, eventually meeting the substantial Wassataquoik Stream which flows from the southwest. This imagery, captured from 1975 aerial photography, reveals the dense timber patterns and water-driven geography of the Penobscot watershed. Smaller tributaries like Deasey Brook further define the drainage patterns of this region, providing a visual record of the forest and river systems before modern changes in land management and recreation.
