1977 Map of Sugarloaf Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Sugarloaf Mountain dominates this orthophotographic study, showing the unmistakable patterns of ski trails and development carved into the slopes of one of Maine's prominent peaks. The aerial imagery, captured in late October of 1977, provides a clear visual record of the high-elevation landscape within the Bigelow area. To the north, the waters of Stratton Brook Pond rest in the valley, while the South Branch Carrabassett River winds through the drainage below the eastern ridges. The contrast between the dense forest cover and the cleared runs on the mountain face offers a precise look at the 1970s footprint of this outdoor recreation hub. Neighboring summits, including Spaulding Mountain and Burnt Hill, anchor the surrounding wilderness, illustrating the physical relationship between these peaks before subsequent decades of growth changed the regional landscape.
