1977 Map of Tim Mountain

About this map

Tim Mountain and the surrounding wilderness of Franklin County appear here in high-contrast detail, captured during a late October 1977 aerial survey. This orthophotoquad provides a clear view of the dense forest cover and hydrologic patterns of the Maine woods before the onset of winter. The landscape is defined by significant water bodies such as Tim Pond and the winding course of the North Branch Dead R in the north. The drainage network is visible through the paths of Tim Brook, Alder Stream, and Lutton Brook, which carve through the high elevations of East Kennebago Mountain. This imagery is particularly valuable for identifying logging roads and natural clearings in a region where few permanent settlements exist, showing the timberland's character just as it was in the late 1970s.
