About this map

The Mattawamkeag River flows through the northern reaches of this Penobscot County landscape, defining the local geography as it moves past Five Island Rapids and Houston Island. This interior Maine region is characterized by a network of drainage systems, including the extensive Mattakeunk Stream and its numerous tributaries such as Contrary Brook and Beaver Brook. Settlement patterns follow the established corridors of Winn Rd and Rte 2, connecting the village of Winn with the smaller hamlets of East Winn and Crockertown.

Upland features like Rollins Mtn and the terrain along Bagley Mountain Rd rise above the wetlands and bogs, including the notable Contrary Brook Bog. For those researching local history, the East Winn Cem serves as a central landmark between the primary settlements. The abundance of named brooks like Salmon Stream and Potter Brook highlights the traditional importance of these waterways to the local community's orientation and development.
