1977 Map of Sugarloaf Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Sugarloaf Mountain dominates this orthophotoquad, which uses rectified aerial imagery to document the high-elevation terrain of Franklin County in the late 1970s. The visual data reveals the distinct development of ski trails carved into the mountainside, contrasting sharply with the surrounding dense forest cover. Flowing through the valley, the South Branch Carrabassett River provides a natural corridor beneath the peaks of Spaulding Mountain and Burnt Hill. This perspective also documents the northern water features, such as Stratton Brook Pond, near the mountain known as Bigelow. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this imagery records the exact density of vegetation and the precise footprint of human activity on the slopes at a time of significant winter recreation growth.
