2014 Map of Burlington

About this map

The Passadumkeag River flows through a landscape defined by glacial topography and timberland in this 2014 study of Penobscot County. The settlements of Burlington and Lowell are central hubs in a network of roads that follow the high ground, such as Main Rd and Church Hill Rd. Local history is anchored by the Lowell Cem and Page Cem, while the industrial past is hinted at by the naming of Gristmill Pond on Eskutassis Stream. To the south and east, the terrain rises toward Passadumkeag Mountain, overlooking a complex of water bodies including Saponac Pond and Eskutassis Pond. The presence of features like White Horse Rips and The Narrows indicates the varied character of the river, which has long been a focal point for the region's geography and navigation.
