1988 Map of Barren Mountain West

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds through this Piscataquis County landscape, crossing the high ridges of Barren Mountain and descending toward the waters of Big Wilson Stream. The map reveals a working forest environment defined by remote outposts such as St Regis Depot Camp and Camp Twelve, alongside the small settlement of Morkill. These sites indicate the area's ongoing logging history within the vast Bowdoin College Grant West and Elliottsville Plt. Water dominates the western edge, where Upper Wilson Pond and Lower Wilson Pond are separated by The Narrows. Geologic features like the Barren Slide, Barren Ledges, and Big Wilson Cliffs highlight the sharp elevation changes that characterize this part of the Maine woods in the late 1980s.
