2021 Map of Deasey Mountain

About this map

Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument dominates this interior Maine landscape, protecting a complex network of high peaks and river valleys in Penobscot County. The topographical character is defined by significant elevations like Deasey Mtn and Lunksoos Mtn, which overlook the winding course of the East Branch Penobscot River. This area has long been shaped by the logging industry, evidenced by the presence of Hauling Road 1 and Lunksoos Rd, which provide access through the dense woodlands. The hydrology of the region is particularly intricate, featuring dramatic water drops at Orin Falls and Gilman Falls along the Wassataquoik Stream. From the high ridges of Hathorn Mtn to the secluded Deasey Ponds, the map illustrates a wilderness area where the mountain terrain meets the essential waterways of the Maine north woods.
