About this map

Munsungan Lake and Chase Lake dominate this Maine North Woods landscape, which is characterized by a complex network of interconnected ponds and brooks. The interior is defined by significant ridges and peaks including Ragged Mountain, Little Ragged Mountain, and Echo Ridge. This terrain, located within Piscataquis County, shows minimal human development, with Pell and Peel Rd providing one of the few named access routes through the dense hydrographic system.

A notable sequence of water bodies, from First Currier Pond through the Sixth Currier Pond, illustrates the drainage patterns toward Currier Brook. Near the center of the sheet, Thirtyfoot Falls marks a distinct elevation drop along the watercourse. This survey captures a specific moment in the management of these timberlands, where names like Sewall Deadwater Pond and Little Bluffer Pond reflect a history of local geographic nomenclature tied to the region's wilderness character.
