1975 Map of Winterville SE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Portage Lake dominates the southeastern portion of this 1975 orthophotograph, a specialized aerial survey that provides a direct visual record of the Aroostook County timberlands during the mid-1970s. The imagery reveals the complex network of logging roads and clearings carved into the forest canopy, particularly around the northern slopes of West Mountain. This industrial landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of the Fish River and its tributary, Mosquito Brook, which cut through the dense vegetation. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this photo-quadrangle captures the specific texture of the Maine woods, showing the precise extent of contemporary timber harvesting operations and the varied density of the second-growth forest at this specific moment in time.
