2021 Map of Catheart Mountain

About this map

Catheart Mtn and Bean Brook Mtn define the high ground in this section of Somerset County, where the industrial logging and mining history of Maine is etched into the landscape. The presence of the Scott Paper Access Rd and multiple stretches of Mining Rd indicates a working forest economy that has shaped the area's development. In the lowlands, water defines the terrain, with the Moose River flowing toward Attean Falls and the settlement of Three Streams marking a junction of several waterways, including Fourmile Brook and Horse Brook. This map documents a region where recreational access, evidenced by roads like Long Pond Rd and Grace Pond Rd, exists alongside active resource extraction, providing a detailed record of the drainage patterns and peaks like Owls Head that characterize the North Woods.
