About this map

Mount Harris Lookout Tower stands as the primary topographical landmark in this rural landscape of southern Penobscot and northern Waldo counties. The area is defined by a traditional New England settlement pattern, with small clusters like Dixmont Center, North Dixmont, and East Troy connected by a network of secondary roads such as Garland Road. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named burial sites including Sawyer Cem, Hathaway Cem, and Jewel Cem, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. Natural drainage features like Martin Stream and the North Branch Marsh Stream wind through the hills, while Cates Meadows and Skinner Bog suggest the low-lying wetlands that limited development. Numerous gravel pits scattered across the quadrangle point to local extractive industry, while Radio Towers on the heights near Drake Pond indicate the modern infrastructure of the early 1980s.
