2021 Map of Eastman Brook

About this map

The Northwest Branch Saint John River and Southwest Branch Saint John River converge in this remote timberland region along the border of Somerset and Aroostook counties. The landscape is defined by its complex network of waterways, including the Daaquam River and Oak Brook, which carve through the dense forests of Big Ten Township. A sparse network of industrial and transport routes, such as Realty Rd, St Juste Rd, and Depot Rd, provides the only overland access through this territory. The drainage patterns of the Saint John River basin dominate the terrain, reflecting the area's ongoing importance to the regional watershed and the logging industry. This survey captures a specific moment in the management of these private lands and river systems in the early twenty-first century.
