2018 Map of Baker Lake NW

About this map

The Southwest Branch Saint John River and the Baker Branch Saint John River converge in this remote corner of Somerset County, defining a landscape shaped by water and timber operations. This portion of the Maine North Woods, specifically within T9 R17 WELS, is characterized by its drainage network and a sparse system of logging roads. Named access routes such as St Juste Rd, Carter Brook Rd, and Foss Brooke Rd provide the only terrestrial skeleton for navigating the wetland-rich terrain. The map captures the hydrological character of the Saint John River's upper reaches, revealing the intricate wetland patterns that dictate the movement of both water and forestry vehicles in this unorganized territory.
