1940 Map of Waite

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The St Croix R forms the international boundary with Canada at the eastern edge of this 1940 survey, a landscape defined by its network of water and timber camps. Small settlements like Waite and Topsfield serve as the primary hubs, while the interior is dotted with remote outposts including Hamilton Camp and Keefe No 2 Camp. This is a land of working farms and managed water, exemplified by Todd Farm and Keeley Farm, as well as the Kennebec Dam on the lower reaches of Tomah Stream. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Tomah Mountain and McLain Mtn, which overlook a complex drainage system of brooks and lakes. For the local historian, the map reveals the layout of rural holdings such as the Lamb Place and the scattered camps that supported the region's wilderness economy before the mid-century.
