2014 Map of Deasey Mountain

About this map

Deasey Mountain and the surrounding peaks of Penobscot County define this section of the Maine interior, where the East Branch Penobscot River winds southward through a landscape of ridges and waterways. The map illustrates a drainage system shaped by the Wassataquoik Stream and Lunksoos Stream, which feed into the primary river valley. High-elevation points like Lunksoos Mountain, Hathorn Mountain, and Wassataquoik Mountain frame the river corridor, while smaller water bodies such as Little Hathorn Pond and Deasey Ponds are tucked into the upland folds. Access to this remote timber and recreational country is primarily via the unpaved E Branch Rd and Lunksoos Rd. Notable water features including Orin Falls and Gilman Falls provide evidence of the steep drops and hydraulic energy present in these northern streams.
