2024 Map of Churchill Stream

About this map

Moose River and the northern shores of Long Pond define this Somerset County landscape, where the interior is shaped by a dense network of timber-access roads and water bodies. The terrain transitions from the high-elevation wetlands of Twelvemile Bog to numerous isolated basins like Luther Pond, Muskrat Pond, and Fish Pond. A sophisticated system of logging and recreational routes, including Brassua Rd and Moose River Rd, crisscrosses the drainages of South Branch Brassua Stream and Stony Brook. This area serves as a primary drainage corridor for the north-central Maine woods, where the lack of permanent residential settlements emphasizes its role as a working forest and ecological preserve. The map captures the current state of these water-rich woods, providing a clear view of the hydrological connections between the many unnamed tributaries and the larger Moose River basin.
