2021 Map of Clarkson Pond

About this map

Eagle Lake dominates the southeastern corner of this Piscataquis County landscape, where the waters of the Maine North Woods gather into a complex network of named tributaries. The terrain is defined by its hydrology, specifically the branching systems of Thoroughfare Brook and its western, middle, northern, and eastern forks. To the south, Russell Brook and its various branches, including N Br Russell Brook and S Br Russell Brook, feed into Lower Russell Pond and the eventual course of Russell Stream. This area is navigated primarily via a sparse network of logging and access roads such as Clarkson Rd, Poulin Rd, and Cyr Rd, indicating a landscape focused on timber management and wilderness recreation. The presence of Johns Bridge Rd and Ranger Rd near the lakeshore suggests established points of entry for those accessing the remote waterways and portages of the region.
