1977 Map of Strong

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Sandy River winds through this 1977 orthophotograph, defining the central valley that historically supported the development of Strong and South Strong. Unlike a traditional topographic sheet, this imagery captures the exact agricultural and timber patterns of the late 1970s, revealing the cleared fields and wooded ridgelines surrounding Gammon Pond. The contrast between the dense forest and the distinct clearings near Bean Brook provides a literal view of the Franklin County landscape as it existed during this period, showing the precise footprints of buildings and roads within the river valley. This aerial perspective is particularly valuable for researchers tracing the physical extent of the timber industry and rural land use in the Western Maine mountains.
