1935 Map of Umsaskis Lake

About this map

Umsaskis Lake and Long Lake dominate this deep-woods landscape within the Allagash wilderness, showing the infrastructure of the early 20th-century timber industry. The map documents a network of remote outposts like the American Realty Depot Camp and Blanchette Camp, linked by primitive routes such as the Tote Road and Realty Road. A Ferry crossing at the southern end of Long Lake and the Long Lake Dam at its northern outlet indicate how the waterways were managed for log driving and transport.
