The Southwest Branch Saint John River and the Baker Branch Saint John River converge in this remote corner of Somerset County, highlighting a landscape defined by the upper reaches of the Saint John drainage. At the time of this 2011 survey, the area remains primarily wild, with the only significant man-made infrastructure being the Carter Nine Mile Rd, which skirts the western edge of the terrain. The map documents the intricate river hydrology, showing the numerous small islands and complex branching of the waterways as they move through the township of T9 R17 WELS. This representation is vital for understanding the untouched state of the North Maine Woods, where topography and hydrology remain the dominant features over human settlement.
