About this map

Second Roach Pond and the surrounding wilderness of Piscataquis County dominate this 2014 survey, highlighting a landscape defined by interconnected waterways and steep peaks. The Roach River serves as a central artery, flowing through a series of namesake basins including First Roach Pond and Fourth Roach Pond. These waters are hemmed in by significant elevations such as Shaw Mtn, Trout Mtn, and the namesake Farrar Mountain.

A sparse network of unpaved access routes like Roach Pond Rd and Pendbscot Rd provides the only passage through the dense forest. The map documents smaller features like Long Bog and Bear Pond, which indicate the complex hydrology of the Maine North Woods. This topography suggests a region primarily used for timber management and remote recreation, where the natural drainage of Rowell Brook and Hinckley Brook dictates the local geography.
